Reboot USB Devices

This script installs and configures uhubctl.

We want to restart the usb hubs whenever a specific USB device is disconnected, in this case a Nikon camera.

Installation

Clone this repo to /opt/reboot-usb-devices

sudo git clone https://github.com/schnaq/reboot-usb-devices.git /opt/reboot-usb-devices
cd /opt/reboot-usb-devices

Install uhubctl with the following command:

sudo ./install.sh

Check via gphoto2 for Nikon Connection

Copy the check_nikon.service file to /etc/systemd/system. Then reload the systemd daemon with the following command:

sudo cp check_nikon.service /etc/systemd/system/
sudo systemctl daemon-reload

Then start and enable the service with the following command:

sudo systemctl start check_nikon.service
sudo systemctl enable check_nikon.service
