I've had problems with USB storage devices not showing up. The problem
was that two host controllers where loaded. If 'lsmod|grep hcd' shows
both uhci_hcd and ehci_hcd then try sticking one of them in a file in
/etc/hotplug/blacklist.d/ (I chose to blacklist ehci_hcd). Hope it
helps.

Software is not manufactured, it is something you write and publish.
Keep Europe free from software patents, we do not want censorship
by patent law on written works.

A picture is worth a thousand words; unfortunately, it consumes the
bandwidth of ten thousand words.
