I have just installed a USB 2.0 Manual Share Switch Hub . One conection going to a laptop ( Windows XP) and the other to a desktop ( Ubuntu 9.4 ) From the 4 usb ports I have connected a printer , a scanner, an external floppy disk drive. The 4th USB port is vacant for now.
When I switch the HUB to the Windows XP connection , this system recognises the devices hanging off the USB hub
However when I switch over to the Ubuntu 9.4 connection , none of the devices are recognised.
I previously have had the printer , scanner and external floppy drive install direct to the Ubuntu and they have all worked
Please could someone please advice what steps I need to take so my ubuntu system recognises the USB 2.0 Switch Hub and the devices connected to it
Thank you
