After trying those kexts, my front panel USB is finally working with my external USB HDD drive that never worked before as long as I didn't boot with it already plugged.

Maybe it's the same for you, so try if you have USB bugs.

Enjoy.

EDIT : It seems i messed up the previous archive, and iPhone / iPods wouldn't be recognized anymore in Itunes.
Here is a new archive with fixed kexts :

Thanks. Will try.

I don't really have problems with USB, but I use modified AppleUSBEHCI for proper sleep on my Lappy.

Cool, I'm going to try these out when I get a chance...I have strange USB mass storage problems. My card reader in my Dell 2407wfp only works occasionally, and when it does it locks up the MassStorage process. Plugging my Nikon D40 in directly via USB usually works, but not always without clearing some extension caches. I'll report back once I've tried them.

The drivers load without issue but they still don't fix the USB problems with my ACER notebook.

USB Driver form 10.5.3 Beta is works without probs.
No wakeup from USB Mouse or Keyboard like 10.5.2 driver. (Hoped so, since wakeup from USB Mouse under 10.4.10 was no prob)

Will this fix the issue of USB devices only showing up if plugged in pre-boot? I currently have no PnP with USB devices. I have to have them connected before boot.

This actually fixed that bug for my external USB HDD.

I installed theese kexts and it still does not shows my usb drives in finder. Ioregexplorer says it's there but it does not show up in finder, also fusion/parallels work fine with them. The drives show up if i boot with them...
Tried iousbfamily from 10.4.10 but without any luck. Tried the fix from the kallyway 10.5.2 dvd and still no luck.
EDIT
the problem was the kernel, i was using 9.2.0 should have used 9.2.2 mobin/kabyl

i need the ubs kext from 10.5.2 please

Thanks man!

I've installed all off the kexts you provided and it was finally the soultion of my USB hotplug problem. I have 9.2.2 Kernel and Leo 10.5.2. When I was plugging any USB device into a USB port the whole machine freezed. Now it' working flawlessly! Thanks!

Fixed my problems with an unrecognized iPhone. I'm running 9.2.0 kernel... afraid to install the 9.2.2 cuz everything is working flawlessly now!

I upgraded from 9.2.0 to 9.2.2 some days ago and it's still working flawlessly. It shouldn't be a big problem with EFI, should it?

it shouldn't.

Hi,
any changes in the USB Parts since last uploaded USB153beta package ?
(Was 1 or 2 new beta build out)

I didn't check since that one works perfectly for me, I didn't bother to mess anything up

it works fine 9.2.2

hi,
i am having troubles downloading the file from rapidshare, it keeps saying i enter a wrong access code....

could anyone post an attachment here or send me an email with it??'
my pen drives won't work without it....
thanks

Pay attention to the symbols (cats and dogs??). I was making the same mistake myself!

hi all,
after some attempt to download, i got thu...
now i have another (would say BIG) problem....i downloaded the files, extracted and pasted the kexts into /system/library/extensions; leo asked me to overwrite since those file were already in there. i overwrote, rebooted and now leo does not boot anymore, it stucks into a gray screen with the apple logo.

i tried to boot -x or -v or -f but nothing changed,,i just can read "can't alloc...." and then "still waiting for root device".

how can i restore the old kext ???is there anyway to get these 10.5.3 files working?? please help!!

thanks
daniele

I havent tried this method but my USB problems were also related to 9.2.0 kernel (from netkas) and 9.2.2 system.kexts. I needed to have proper shutdown/restart/sleep. so i fixed with this approach that I had posted here

may be it can help some of you.

dear lionext,

i need to solve my bootup ttrouble before applying your solution.

i tried MACDRIVE from my other windows xp-harddrive but once i open the leo-disk it says "volume is damaged" and cannot browse it to replace the old usb kext.

i tried to boot from kalyway install dvd and splashed into terminal but i cannot definitely manage to copy the kext...
what i see is the prompt "bash #3.2"

i'd need some command line instruction to copy my kexts into /system/library/extensions which are hosted in my usb pendrive....
(i am thinking about reading some command-line manual )
please help me!!
thanks
daniele

I have a problem with te prmissions, when I try to load the kextload with kextload -t/System/Library/Extensions/IOUSBMassstirageClass.kext, i have this error

Authentication failures File owner/permissions are incorrect (must be roor:wheel and nowritable by group/other

De origial permissions are: drwxr-r-xr-x root:wheel
but i have drwxr-r-xr-x@ root:wheel

Can you help me to change the permissiont to have the correct kext??
what is "@" in the permissions???

Ok, I solve it

I have a new problem, it say: problem compatibylity because i have 2.02 and this is the 2.03 when I kextload -t/System/Library/Extensions/IOUSBMassstirageClass.kext,

can you help me?

what kexts are you talking about? for solving boot problems or USB problems?for copying>cp /Volumes/PenDrive/FileName.kext /Volumes/LeoparVolume/System/Library/Extenstionssay yest if needed to replace, and then correct permission (chown and chmod). chown -R 0:0 /System/Library/Extensions/ExtensionNamechmod -R 755 .....the same above..you can use ditto command also for copying. I am also little Terminal-naive but can manage most of the time. chown and chmod again for correct permissions. check the forums how to correct permissions.

Thank you very much!!!

But I've solved de problem, but I have a impotrnat problem now,
new problem, it say: problem compatibylity because I have 2.02 the kext is 2.03 when I kextload -t/System/Library/Extensions/IOUSBMassstirageClass.kext,can you help me?
