Denon 2310 stopped working and no longer being detected

[tunebob]

I have a Denon 2310 connected via a usb to serial cable and its been running fine for a number of months now...however in the last two weeks it has stopped working completely.  It wont respond to any commands from linuxmce and after deleting it as a device it is no longer being detected.  I have replaced the cable in order to rule that in or out and the same issue is occurring.

I noticed a similar thread relating to a Yamaha RX-1600 not being detected ( http://forum.linuxmce.org/index.php?topic=11157.0 ) and wonder if anything might be up with the PnP system at the moment, prob just my system but baffled as to what could have changed.

I do update my system regularly using apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade and am running on latest release


thanks

Is the USB to serial cable a pl2302?

[tunebob]

Hi Hari, wasnt sure at first what you mean by a PL2302 but from a google i think you mean a Prolific Tech 2302?

If so, answer is no....its an ABC brand, heres a link to the same cable on amazon

I would bet you have the same issue as the thread you cited.

I think somebody needs to take a look at that device template and maybe just delete the PNP info

I have investigated things a little further. I noticed in my list of 'unknown devices' the following item:

067b2303      /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_67b_2303_noserial   

So i deleted this device, unplugged the Denon usb->serial cable from the MD, reloaded the router then re inserted the Denon usb->serial cable.

The device was detected as a 'Generic USB to RS232 dongle' and not as the usual 'AVC-A1SRA (RS232)' device.

So obviously sometime in the last couple of weeks when the denon disconnected, it has been subsequently picked up by the PnP engine but as this generic serial device and i have clicked ignore as i didnt have a clue what it was....

The DCERouter.log shows the following trace for the newly detected Generic USB to RS232 dongle device:

Anyone any ideas as to what might be going on ?

thanks

I should also point out that the script '/usr/pluto/pnp/99_PLCBUS_1141.sh' does not exist in my pnp directory....

I think I found the culprit see my post http://forum.linuxmce.org/index.php?topic=11157.15
