two random thoughts.

richard has made some changes to use i believe in the last 6 months or so, its probably worth re -merging.

secondly - the most common problem i have seen on pi’s it a lack of psu volts. marginal rails can cause some very odd usb behaviour. i had some intermittent usb faults last week and the pi ‘s supply measured 4.1v.  a powered hub solved the problem as usual.
