Subject: Invalid magic number 0000 

Under linux, many people observed that the USB connection is unstable to the evaluation board. This must be related to the linux USB stack, since my code runs fine under MacOSX and Windows, where I use the same USB library (libusb-1.0). So I can't do anything from my side. Baybe the linux system has some tools to reset an USB endpoint. I googled it and found some proposals here:

Hello everybody!

After some times i init my board, or if i stop the program during the acquisition, i get the error message "Invalid magic 0000". The only way i can solve this problem is to physically disconnect and plug in again the USB cable.

What's the point? Is there a bash command / code i could use to reset it?

Thank you very much
