USB driver package version 12.13 now available

USBArca Noae is pleased to announce the immediate availability of release 12.13 of our USB stack.

This is a maintenance release that contains some minor fixes.

  • Several changes to USBKBD to enhance support for more types of keyboards and to assist in debugging non-working keyboards.
  • Several changes to USBD that correct device enumeration in certain situations and device configuration.
  • Enhancements to the USBCalls interface so that error codes are returned properly.
  • Several changes to the XHCI driver for problems with Intel processors, including those relating to Isochronous transfers.

Most people will see no change in operation after installing this update. See the package readme.txt for details. This update is recommended for all users.

As usual, this release is update only. It will only update an existing installation. More information about the USB drivers can be found in the wiki.

If you have problems with any of the drivers in this release, please read the Troubleshooting Guide in the wiki first. If your problem cannot be resolved with the Troubleshooting Guide, then the problem should be reported in the ticketing system. Make sure you use the latest TestLog program if you report a problem.
