This will show you how to find out all about parameter options on your system
If you view the config file in /boot and search for either IOMMU or USB you will see the huge range of possible parameter choices, most of which are irrelevent. There seems to be no recipe for finding the parameters relevant to a given problem
Now the ‘Device Descriptor error’ changed to -11. Then same sitting idle with Debian logo, but now it sits there for some time, then it tried to boot into the live OS but couldn’t and showed this:
Error codes don’t help much now.
11 says only again and again…
I notice, Debian has ehci, xhci in lsmod output, whereas Fedora does not.
So what if you change BIOS settings regarding these?
Disable xhci/hci handoff, reboot, and see if something changed?
Edit: alternatively disbable these modules in Debian, so where you added iommu, add this now:
As Debian failed to boot from live USB coonected in USB 2 port, I reconnected it in USB 3 port and booted. This time it booted into the live OS and I found these entries in the Config file:

I had NO IDEA this file could have such an enormous data. If you need some other entry, please let me know and I will search it in the file. If you guys and gals need this CONFIG file, I can give it to you also. Just let me know. Whoooffff!!! Boy, I am so tired. I have no idea, how many people compiled this file and in how much time.
Did it boot, or was it stuck there?
Somehow I guess it was stuck, so it feels, this made it worse, so the “direction” is not good.
Let’s turn 180 degree! ENABLE IOMMU in your BIOS, but still keep the handoffs disabled.
Now try to boot Debian with
If I enable that Debian will fail to detect the USB 3 devices. My kb and mouse are connected to USB 3 ports. They will not function. So, I have to do a hard reset. I have tested that earlier.
Did you try already this permutation of available choices? iommu=soft kernel parameter specified AND
IOMMU=enabled set in BIOS AND
XHCI/EHCI handoffs=disabled set in BIOS
?
In that enormous config file in /boot
The lines ending in ‘=y’ are static modules (compiled into the kernel at build time).
The lines ending in ‘=m’ are dynamically loaded modules (loaded either at boot time or by the user).
The commented lines usually tell us about a particular option that is not set.
You can only alter dynamically loaded modules or boot parameters, you are stuck with modules compiled into the kernel.
That file is hard to read. Dont edit it, it is a report of what has been set for your kernel.
# CONFIG_PCIEASPM_POWERSAVE is not set
# CONFIG_PCIEASPM_POWER_SUPERSAVE is not set
# CONFIG_PCIEASPM_PERFORMANCE is not set
CONFIG_PCIE_PME=y
CONFIG_PCIE_DPC=y
CONFIG_PCIE_PTM=y
# CONFIG_PCIE_EDR is not set
I think maybe this is it
CONFIG_PCIE_PME=y
meaning it is compiled into the kernel, you cant change it.
I think we are out of ideas with kernel parameters
As a last ditch you might try intel_iommu=off
It is about intel graphics cards, but it fixed my disk detection issue so maybe it will help with your ports?
Failing that, I think we go back to version issues with modules.
Fedora is more uptodate than Debian, so it will have newer versions of some modules.
You can get a more uptodate Debian by going to Debian testing.
Would you be able to try a Debian testing live flash drive?
Where should I write it, using the Tab key while on the Debian menu page?
@daniel.m.tripp Dan, has another theory which is disheartening but I also suggested that previously. Dan’s theory is:
Now my qustion is, if this usb3 port problem is a hardware issue, then how Fedora solved it but other distros failed?! If we can find this answer then we will find the solution, I think. Note: I think, I should not go for Arch or Arch based distros as I found some opinions that it is not suitable for beginners like me who want to use Linux as a user.
It is a kernel boot parameter.
In the grub menu, type ‘e’ and you will enter an editor where you can add it to the grub.cfg file
or
in a running Debian, edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg then reboot
You need an installed Debian… I dont think you can alter kernel boot parameters with a live usb drive, because it is not writeable.
So, how did you test those other kernel boot parameters that Laszlo recommended?
I hope you tested them correctly?
I have no idea, how many people compiled this file and in how much time.
