Hi, Sorry for the delay, thanks for answering my post.
Here's a snippet from /var/log/messages when I put in my flash disk, then took it out, then plugged in the Netgear DM602: Jun 6 08:36:41 darkstar kernel: Initializing USB Mass Storage driver... Jun 6 08:36:41 darkstar kernel: usb.c: registered new driver usb-storage Jun 6 08:36:41 darkstar kernel: scsi1 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices Jun 6 08:36:42 darkstar kernel: sda: sda1 Jun 6 08:36:42 darkstar kernel: USB Mass Storage support registered. Jun 6 08:40:30 darkstar kernel: usb.c: USB disconnect on device 00:07.2-2 address 2 Jun 6 08:41:18 darkstar kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:07.2-2, assigned address 3 Jun 6 08:41:21 darkstar kernel: usb.c: registered new driver acm Jun 6 08:41:21 darkstar kernel: acm.c: v0.21:USB Abstract Control Model driver for USB modems and ISDN adapters Relevant lines are last two lines. Seems the ACM driver thinks the device is OK. Here is a copy of /proc/usb/devices: T: Bus=01 Lev=00 Prnt=00 Port=00 Cnt=00 Dev#= 1 Spd=12 MxCh= 2 B: Alloc= 0/900 us ( 0%), #Int= 0, #Iso= 0 D: Ver= 1.00 Cls=09(hub ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs= 1 P: Vendor=0000 ProdID=0000 Rev= 0.00 S: Product=USB UHCI-alt Root Hub S: SerialNumber=8000 C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=40 MxPwr= 0mA I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 1 Cls=09(hub ) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=hub E: Ad=81(I) Atr=03(Int.)

See how the hub device driver is registered for the comm. device? (Or is that a line that belongs to the hub only? I'll have to read up on the /proc/usb/devices file and how I should interpret its contents.) Thanks for any suggestions or help. :) Cheers James On Fri, 2004-06-04 at 18:34, Stephen J.
