[RESPONDED] Framework 13 AMD - USB A Ports don't play nice with Logitech Unifying Reciever

Has anyone else run into USB A port problems on Linux? I am on Debian 12, tried kernels 6.1, 6.5 and 6.6.8 and I keep having trouble with my Logitech Unifying Receiver not working (log below), and even plugging in a USB flash drive produces errors though the device mounts after a few seconds.

I did try alternative USB C to A adapters, but this issue appears to affect them as well.

Hi @Dan_Ryan ,

can we try and check if it has something to do with the USB A expansion card? have you already tried reseating and tried other expansion slots?

The USB issue appears to be specific to this G502 Lightspeed MR0076 unifying receiver and my Framework 13 AMD, as when I swap my SSD back to my old Thinkpad A485 the unifying receiver works fine, and vice versa if I use a different Logitech wireless mouse or a different USB device it works just fine:

I wonder if it’s linux in general not able to support Logitech Unifying Receiver fully, or Just framework.

is it same behavior on Ubuntu 22.04.3 live or Fedora 39 live?

This hardware compatibility issue appears to be Framework only, the Logitech Unifying Receiver works fine on Ubuntu 22.04 on another machine.
