This has not been a problem. I do have several USB components configured in the kernel rather than as modules. Grepping .config for CONFIG_USB CONFIG_USB=y CONFIG_USB_DEVICEFS=y CONFIG_USB_EHCI_HCD=y CONFIG_USB_UHCI=y CONFIG_USB_OHCI=y CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_DATAFAB=y CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_DPCM=y CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_JUMPSHOT=y CONFIG_USB_HID=y CONFIG_USB_HIDINPUT=y CONFIG_USB_HIDDEV=y
These are just the ones set to "y" I have some others as modules but many are no as they are specific to things I don't have. Richard
