output of lsusb is perfect:

Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  
Bus 001 Device 010: ID 05ac:1209 Apple Computer, Inc. 
Bus 001 Device 009: ID 0930:6532 Toshiba Corp. 
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  

here's my syslog which (to me) seems correct, too.

So, my question is: What should happen after udev is done??

> Do you use hubs?  Which hubs?

No.

> 
> Do you use long USB extension cords?

No. USB devices are connected directly to the computer.

> What USB devices are you trying to attach?

A Kingston USB stick (256MB) and an Apple iPod (it's not mine, so please
don't blame me on that ;-))

I only have a silly answer: They did work that means they were
automatically mounted under /media. I'm running Dapper 6.06 with kernel
