---USB port checking

Jan 11, 2005 1 Replies

Dear all,



For production reason, I need a method to check if the 2 usb ports are ok or not. I don't want to use flash disk to be connect to it. By the way, the os i use is arca-patched linux-2.4.18 Somebody can advise me or index me?

Hi Bob,

The only true way to check if the usb ports are fully working is to plug something into them. perhaps you could use a usb networking cable to join the two together and check traffic ?

regards,
