Hey! That would be a nice solution but sadly I've not been using the thumbdrive port at all. Thanks for the suggestion though!

Tried it on a different computer just now, also running Linux Mint. The keyboard showed itself correctly first time. I tried turning it off and on again and after the first time it didn't register. After that, I tried it in my desktop again, and so far it has registered itself correctly consistently after a few times of turning the keyboard on and off. I don't have a different cable to hand, and I figured if it was working at all the cable probably isn't at fault. Maybe the cable is the problem, and moving it is dislodging some frayed wire inside? Everything seems to be working for the moment. Next time it breaks I'll grab a new USB cable and see if it helps. Cheers!

Hi all, The USB midi port on my PX-350m seems to work only intermittently. I've tried various different USB ports, both 2.0 and 3.0. I've tried in Windows and Linux. I've tried every permutation of turning the piano on before my computer, computer before piano, plugging in the USB cable only after booting etc. etc. I've seen it work for definite in Linux twice so far. Both times in a USB3.0 slot. Once when I booted my computer with the piano turned on and plugged in, once when I turned the piano on after I had booted into my OS. Neither time required any additional drivers etc. (as makes sense, class compliant). It also registered itself correctly with Windows 8.1 once ("CASIO-USB-MIDI" or whatever the correct name is, showing up in device manager). These are only 3 out of maybe 20 times I've tried so far. My linux distro is Mint 17.1, my motherboard is an asus P8Z77-V PRO. Anyone experienced anything like this before? I'm not having any other USB issues with my computer so I'm inclined to believe it is the piano that is acting weirdly. Is there some specific voodoo that I need to perform before I try to connect? Thanks, - Kieran
