Could you tell if it was a USB problem or a thumbdrive problem? lsusb would tell you if it is a general usb problem. I have only encountered USB problems on the Pavilion zv6000 (the zv5000 is identical model as the r3000 and the zv6000 is very similar to the zv5000) and that was only a USB 2.0 problem. > I know both of these items WILL work under Knoppix 4.0.2 because both work > on my desktop with this OS.

That really makes me think that the usb is just weird, but see if you are able to figure out anything with lsusb. -Eric Anderson _______________________________________________ Linuxr3000 mailing list [email protected] http://mail.kdewebdev.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxr3000
