Hello, I am wondering if it’s possible to turn off/disable a specific USB port? as per lsusb, the specific port I need to be turned off is Bus 008 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub.
A 5V fan is currently plugged in but lsusb does not recognize it properly.
I am hoping to create a script which will turn the fan on/off depending on the CPU temp.
Thanks in advance!
did some DDG’ng
Very interesting. I never thought about this being possible. For me, a USB fan is just always on, but if this works, it could be controlled like a PWM fan, just software-wise.
Sadly I have no USB fan to test, AFAIK. Need to dig in some old hardware boxes 
. Would be nice to have a little TUI to control this, and generate some service to toggle it based on defined CPU temperature.
