It's been a joy ride for me too, as I tend to change hardware devices quite 
frequently.

The one glitch I have had so far is loading the zip drive (ppa.o) too early 
in the VARS script (/etc/rc.d/rc.modules). If i do this, the system removes 
my scsi card controller module and the disks (on it) are innacessible. I have 
to resort to using rc.local. I am still confused in RH _where_ you are 
supposed to place extra modules at boot time.

I just finished a kernel 2.4.7 upgrade and on reboot, voila! the program(s) 
you refer to above instantly detected my usb camera and loaded all necessary 
modules.
