Hi guys, today when trying to mount a usb stick i noticed that none of them show up at all, in neither usb port. I'm running Artix-Runit, Kernel 6.8.2-artix1-1 on a Lenovo Thinkpad X13 Yoga
Tried the following things, but found no usb stick or usb-related errors:

- When plugging it in, the light on my usb stick turns on for about one second, so I thought that maybe usb autosuspending was the problem, so I installed 'tlp' and set USB_AUTOSUSPEND="0" but that did nothing :(
- also looked inside the UEFI but everything usb-related that I could find (which wasn't a lot) was turned on.
I'd be very thankful for any suggestions you could have!
Could it be a hardware issue, e.g. an internal fault on the motherboard?
Does any other usb hardware get recognised, mouse, keyboard, etc.?
I am presuming that the usb sticks used to work on that machine?
I'd try on lts kernel.
I tried keyboard and mouse, but they didn't work, I thought the mouse would light up for a second like the usb stick but it didn't. I also tried a USB-C dock which was recognised in lsusb but no usb sticks could be detected through that either. Then i tried it on a windows partition and it worked fine... bitter defeat.
That fixed it! Thank you so much! Now, could you tell me if running an LTS kernel has any tangible drawbacks for me?
Anyways, I learned how to make grub play a melody, that was worth it alone!

LTS kernel is fine to run, sometimes recommended, but on your recentishly made laptop i'd recommend trying the main kernel again after a year or so.
Thank you, I'll check!
