I don't know. There was one bug in uhci-hcd that has been fixed in 2.6.17.8 and 2.6.18-rc4, and there's an unsolved report in Bugzilla (#6747) that appears to be another. Can you try using those tokens with a 32-bit computer or with a 2.6.16 kernel? Alan Stern ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
