[Bug 1460310] [NEW] "sudo lshw >> lshw.txt" hangs forever at "USB"

[LAZA]

Public bug reported:

I got  a "new" machine and installed Xubuntu 15.04 on it.

Trying to get the hardware list out of it, i did this:

open up  a Terminal
~$ sudo lshw >> lshw.text
USB

There it hangs forever...

Maybe the installed USB-Card (Transcend TS-PDU3) on PCI slot without power is the problem?
I got no more electrical connection...
