USB Settings help
This is a weird questions. I have a usb device that is just supposed to pull power (it is an E-Cig with a button you push to start it) to the best of my knowledge it has no "computer" or chip in it - i just need it to pull charge.
The problem is i can't get Ubuntu or Windows Vista (I Am dual booting) to give it power (actually is it getting SOME power, i can tell because the contacts on it are providing some power - but NOT CONTINUOUS.) I know wierd. Anyways the usb ports all work for my phone and camera.
And the device im using works because it works in my xbox.
My question is how do i get either of these operating systems to give it power, or how do I edit settings.
Thank you.
Im running a Lenovo Y510 laptop. Can give other specs if you ask.

Re: USB Settings help
I've used a "device" which just draws power, and it worked fine. It was on a desktop. Perhaps it's a setting in the BIOS of your laptop?
(My device is a Christmas tree with half a dozen lights.)
