Larry, just a little more info on this issue, FYI.
It would seem the problem is certainly specific to the 'Inventra' mUSB
host found in recent TI ARM products and ADI Blackfin devices.
I have added a PCI express NEC USB 2.0 host controller card to my ARM
Cortex A8 system, and the r8712u devices work just fine when connected
via that host controller. (Albeit only at 20MBps rate, but that's
because the host controller is rather poor in general).
We have now raised this problem with TI USB experts.
Regards,
Ian.
