Encouraging, I suppose. But MyMileage*Does*Vary. :) The fact that another person is experiencing (and evidently has always experienced) the trouble I'm having is interesting. Maybe it's less of an anomaly than it seemed. Note that my USB is not utterly failing, but only works with one port. And we know that it's not particular to a distro; Ivan is using RH and I'm on Debian. I am inclined, as Stephen suggests, to take it to the kernel list; especially since I've run across 2.4 patches that appear as though they treat the same or similar situation. BTW, my USB2.0 was disabled because I had simply failed to compile the EHCI module. So that is dealt with, but all else remains to be resolved. thanks again everyone, steve -- Steve Jones "Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend. Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read." -- G.
