Thank you very much Derick for your effort, but I used the same USB hub also
previously, and udev didn't complain. Thus, it shouldn't be the reason why
now it does. You haven't told me what this error message means. Thanks,
what's the exact message? ( ie /var/log/dmesg - should be there I
think... the X one I can't remember...)
Also, are you very sure its udev that's causing the problem? The
default YDL boots to X you see.
It might be coming from one of the startup scripts I think. xmodmap
(the executable) is part of X which sets your keyboard map etc...
I noticed you typed Xmodmap - and you referred to /etc/X11 - you
possibly may be referring to the default config file which I think X
parses as it starts.
In which case I have a hypothesis - the file might have been corrupted
in that inadvertent system shutdown.
Perhaps someone here with a lot more X knowledge can help. Maybe 'man
xmodmap' - there might be more info there.
This also begs another question: if one file is corrupt, what else could be?
I would suggest making frequent backups of your linux install just in
case something gets really messed up - I experiment a lot, you see, so
I do ;)

Hi Robert and thanks for your concern about my problem. The exact
message is: error at "! /etc/X11/Xmodmap". Thanks in advance, Angelo
