When I ls /dev there are no ub* nodes :( When I plug in a usb device say my camera: lsusb gives: QUOTE **************************************************************************************** Bus 004 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 002 Device 003: ID 045e:007d Microsoft Corp.
