When I try to start usbd I get the following:
No USB host controllers found.
There are no usb* devices listed in /dev.
in dmesg I get the following with regard to ohci0 and ehci0:

When I plug the drive into any of the USB ports on the system,
nothing happens in dmesg or /var/log/messages. camcontrol devlist
lists no devices.
I'm a bit confused as to why my USB keyboard and mouse function, but
my thumb drive will not.
It's likely that your BIOS has "legacy" support enabled in which case,
as far as FreeBSD is concerned, you actually have a regular keyboard
and mouse. That would explain why the mouse and keyboard work while
other USB items do not. From the messages you gave, it's clear that
FreeBSB is unable to connect to the USB controller. Disabling legacy
support in the BIOS may help. Otherwise check your BIOS for other USB
related settings and try changing those.
Indeed, legacy support is enabled (actually "auto" was the setting in
the BIOS). When I disable it, the keyboard and mouse cease functioning,
as well. That was the only setting I could find in the BIOS related to USB.
I suppose that means the on-board USB controller is one not supported by
existing drivers? Or at least ones not listed in the GENERIC config on
which I based my kernel (all I added was the ath drivers for my
wireless)? I don't know which chipset it is, but my guess is, since the
on-board video and LAN is an nVidia chipset, that the USB controller
probably is, as well.
