Are you sure that usb3 a-to-a cable allows not only debugging (kernel.org/doc/html/v4.16/driver-api/usb/usb3-debug-port.html - needs xHCI debug capability DbC, which is optional for xHCI usb3 host controllers), but also file transfer? For file transfer there are active cables (with controller in middle), some listed at: ghisler.com/cables | |

I connected for a few seconds and nothing happened on dmesg, so I promptly disconnected as I usually do with anything that does not promptly work. | |
