heya, i have it running fine, and i'm balthasar[~]00:13:09$ uname -a Linux balthasar 2.4.19 #1 Sat Nov 16 15:49:07 EST 2002 i686 unknown unknown GNU/Linux
but i believe i've had it working on 2.4.18 as well. i believe you
just need more modules installed. here's an edited output of my lsmod,
maybe you need some of these other modules loaded too, like usbcore
or usb-uhci?
balthasar[~]00:13:14$ /sbin/lsmod
Module Size Used by Not tainted
usb-storage 97744 0 (unused)
usb-uhci 20908 0 (unused)
usbcore 54112 0 [hid usb-uhci]
vfat 9276 0 (autoclean)
fat 29080 0 (autoclean) [vfat]
sd_mod 9932 0 (autoclean)
scsi_mod 80296 1 [sd_mod]
if this isn't the case, try doing a tail -f /var/log/messages before
you plug it in, then plug it in, and take a look at whatever it says
for clues
