Why does a specific phone not work when connected to my PC, but only on the rear USB ports?
This is a peculiar issue. I cannot get a Oneplus Nord 2 smartphone to connect over USB, but only for the ports on the back of the PC (on the IO shield that is - I do have a PCI-E card with extra USB 3 A and C ports, and they do work). I see this in dmesg when plugging into the rear ports [ 9596.985248] usb usb1-port2: Cannot enable. Maybe the USB cable is bad? [ 9597.873265] usb usb1-port2: Cannot enable. Maybe the USB cable is bad? [ 9597.873330] usb usb1-port2: attempt power cycle [ 9598.824919] usb usb1-port2: Cannot enable. Maybe the USB cable is bad? [ 9599.713121] usb usb1-port2: Cannot
