Alan (and the world),
It is Sunday night, and I've had a chance to try it: [EMAIL PROTECTED] steve $ uname -a Linux SteveNb 2.6.11-gentoo-r6 #1 SMP Sun May 1 18:25:01 EST 2005 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1600MHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux The short answer is that this kernel doesn't really make a difference. I'm not black-and-white as over many plugs-and-unplugs randomly but infrequently it will work, but maybe a little more favourably than before. I did forget to mention something in the previous email, and that is, even with no ehci (i.e. using uhci), plugging the keyboard into the hub gives the same debounce message, and very infrequently it will pass and load the driver. Any more suggestions? I'm not sure how to progress from here. Steve.
