When I upgraded to 2.4.19 everything was fine. Of course I'm not saying that it will fix your problems but I think the general approach with USB problems is to go to a newer kernel whenever you can, as USB support is very much in a state of flux at present. (You might even try 2.5...:) There are excellent instructions in the INSTALL documents which come with the kernel sources, but I found that I had to ignore the warning not to build in /usr/src because some of the header files needed for kernel 2.4 were missing from my 2.2 tree. If you are already running a 2.4 kernel that shouldn't be a problem. 73, Ged. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: OSDN - Tired of that same old cell phone?
