Right.

Oh, I see:

drivers/usb/usb.c:
#if !defined(CONFIG_BLK_DEV_UB) && !defined(CONFIG_BLK_DEV_UB_MODULE)
        { USB_INTERFACE_INFO(USB_CLASS_MASS_STORAGE, US_SC_SCSI, US_PR_BULK) },
#endif

grrr... Ok, I had it configured as a module. Loading it enabled access to
the device. Thanks! This was really a question for usb-users... Just one
more, if you don't mind - what's the right thing to do now? Is ub going to
completely replace usb-storage? In "help" it says "low performance"...
If it really is slow, shouldn't it be possible to choose between the 2 at
runtime?

Thanks
