+
+There is a way to suspend a USB device.  In order to use it, 
+you must have a kernel with CONFIG_PM_SYSFS_DEPRECATED turned on.  To 
+suspend a device, do (as root):
+
+	echo -n 2 >/sys/bus/usb/devices/.../power/state
+
+where the "..." is the ID for your device.  To unsuspend, do the same 
+thing but with a "0" instead of the "2" above.
+
+Note that this mechanism is slated to be removed from the kernel within 
+the next year.  Hopefully some other mechanism will take its place.

+
+Here's a program to do it.  You invoke it as either
+
+	usbreset /proc/bus/usb/BBB/DDD
+or
+	usbreset /dev/usbB.D
+
+depending on how your system is set up, where BBB and DDD are the bus and
+device address numbers.
