Workarounds for low current problem on Linux USB3 port.
If uvc device driver(uvcvideo) is loaded as a kernel module and you don’t use uvc device other than THETA,
disable uvc driver by adding uvc device driver to the driver blacklist.
e.g.
sudo sh -c "echo blacklist uvcvideo >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf"
or
Before connecting the THETA, disable autosuspend feature of the USB driver by writing -1 to the
/sys/module/usbcore/parameters/autosuspend.
e.g.
sudo sh -c "echo -1 > /sys/module/usbcore/parameters/autosuspend"
