Packardell with usb problems
Hi
First of all, I own a notebook PackardBell PackMate 1400 with Debian
unstable, teste with with kernel 2.6.18 , 2.6.25 y 2.6.28.
The problem is very simple yet I have found no solution whatsoever
When booting any of the above mentioned kernels with no parameters
everything works just fine but the USB devices, which simply I can't
get to work, for example. usb mouse hardly hardly moving and pendrives
don't get recognized. At this point no messages appear on dmesg showing
new plugged usb devices.
Some of the possibly reasons ( greom dmesg)

[ 2.111312] uhci_hcd 0000:00:10.0: irq 11, io base 0x00001200
I've tried acpi=off, pci=noacpi and acpi=off, but with no success
With some of this combos I can get the USB devices to work BUT in this
case the kernel can't assign an IRQ to the wireless card
I've googled but found nothing about this, except some information about
buggy BIOSes
Anyone with any useful link or resource about this very annoying
problem?
TIA
Here's is the dmesg output
