USB Port Not Working

Hi all,
I am facing a strange problem of not functional USB Port under OpenSUSE 11.2. The USB worked perfectly fine till yesterday. I Plugged in my USB flash drive and pulled it out without performing a formal eject.Since then, it seems that USB ports are not working as I had to change to PS2 Mouse and no USB device is detected by the operating system.

Please guide me how to get it fixed.

Thanks and Regards,
Eldon

Format the drive with dd

Does it show in **fdisk -l
**

Actually, that sounds more like hardware failure of the usb hub ports. You may have blown the power supply to the chipset.

What does ‘lsusb’ (without any devices plugged in) report?

Have you rebooted since this occurrence?
