Thanks! I'm running Gentoo, recently upgraded to the 2.6 kernel (2.6.9-r6, right now) and udev, and almost everything is working perfectly. Here's the one issue I'm trying to figure out: If I plug my usb pen drive into a usb port in the rear of the PC (essentially, straight into the motherboard) it works fine -- but if I plug it in to one of the two usb ports in the front of the case, it is not detected (at least, I can see no detection with dmesg or by checking /var/log/messages) and my keyboard is immediately disabled. As soon as the usb drive is unplugged, any characters typed while it was plugged in will appear on the command-line. I'm not a kernel hacker, but I'm not a complete newbie, either. Any suggestions as to where I should start are welcome. And again, if I'm asking the question in the wrong place, my apologies. Thanks in advance!
