Pinebook uart(0) Slider Switch Enable -- Disables left-hand USB Port

[MarkHaysHarris777]

Greetings, 

Please see this reference link:

The uart(0) enable slider switch on the Pinebook main board (while working) disables the left-hand usb port !

In this mode the left-hand USB port is completely disabled on my Pinebook;  I am interested in knowing if others have seen this, or if this is an anomaly on my unit.

Thanks

 


Note:  when the slider switch is restored, the left-hand port becomes active again !

( solidly reproducible on my unit )

I've had one confirmation on irc.pine64.xyz that the serial HPjack slider switch also disabled the left-hand usb port on that machine as well.
