Try upgrading to a 2.6.8.1 kernel, this sounds like a host controller issue, and not a hotplug script specific issue. If you still have problems with that kernel version, take this to the linux-usb-devel mailing list (detailing what USB host controller driver you are using.) The developers there will be able to help you out. thanks, greg k-h ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: YOU BE THE JUDGE.
