Get USB 2/3 hub #53

Open andrewipark opened 6 years ago

andrewipark commented 6 years ago

The current front panel one is USB 1.1, which makes using it a royal pain (~3 seconds delay every time the USB is touched). USB 2 (or 3) hub should alleviate this.

For bonus points, figure out how to replace the cabinet's ones (not just like USB cords or w/e).

Post-requisites: change etc/fstab to the new hub numbers.

Blocked for now until we figure out why USB profiles are crashing(!) the machine, and just generally being extremely unreliable.

The USB hub that shipped with Cabby always felt loose (it was not uncommon for USB sticks to slip out at the slightest bump), so we ended up gutting the original plastic USB hub and using its casing just to properly space two USB extension cables.

Hope this helps. 🙂

RhythmLunatic resolved a similar issue on Ubuntu by changing the mount path to /mnt/ instead of /media/. See: https://github.com/stepmania/stepmania/issues/1778
