Jul 11, 2020 at 16:59 comment added Andy Newman I have the same problem. I used a sleep command to get lsusb to run while the keyboard was attached via the hub (I switched them out during the sleep) ......... pi@raspberrypi:~ $ lsusb ......... Bus 001 Device 007: ID c0f4:05e0 ......... Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub ......... pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sleep 60;lsusb ......... Bus 001 Device 008: ID 0a05:7211 Unknown Manufacturer hub ......... Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub ......... pi@raspberrypi:~ $ It can clearly see the hub, but the keyboard doesn't work and isn't shown

If you are sure you have the hub connected correctly but you can't debug via serial or install an OS with diagnostic tools then once again, I think you will just have to accept that you cannot get it to work.

Nov 13, 2016 at 11:57 comment added goldilocks Good point -- you need to use the serial console to do this, for which you need something you can connect it to, and if retropie doesn't have the right tools for debugging anyway, then there is not much point. I'll reopen the question, but if you don't have a means of debugging the issue then there is not much anyone can say besides "If it doesn't work for you then it doesn't work, oh well". WRT how the hub is connected, yes the pi only has one port, the place people tend to go wrong here is assuming they can just use a microUSB cable and connect that to any port on the hub, which is wrong.
Nov 13, 2016 at 11:00 comment added StuckInPhDNoMore Hi goldilocks. I have retropie, where is the terminal or how can I enter this command without terminal? Same goes for other command? Also the pizero only has one port to which the hub is attached. I will connect the keyboard to that. Since hub is not working the keyboard via the hub will not work either? Would these commands and outputs be useful when the keyboard is directly attached to the pizero?

Nov 13, 2016 at 10:25 comment added goldilocks There have been other people complain about this, and yet it does not seem to be a problem for most people, which begs the question whether the people with the problem are doing something wrong. To rule that possibility out, you need to include 1) The output of lsusb with the hub attached -- you may have to apt install usbutils (or whatever equivalent) first; 2) A photograph of how the hub is connected to the Pi.
Nov 13, 2016 at 8:38 comment added Steve Robillard The simple thing would be to borrow a powered hub from a friend and give it a try.
