USBView Error on Hardy 8.04 AMD64

[Steven Davies-Morris]

I installed the USBViewer to help diagnose why I can't see my USB
devices from within VirtualBox. When I look in "configure" I see that it
is looking to find the devices file in /proc/bus/usb/devices. But
there's nothing there. When opening the USBViewer (or doing a refresh
after it's open) I get this message:

Can not open the file /proc/bus/usb/devices
Verify that you have USB compiled into your kernel,
have the USB core modules loaded, and have the
usbdev's filesystem mounted.

All of which is a lot to digest. First is it simply that I need to point
to somewhere other than /proc/bus/usb/devices? Or if that's correct,
what do I need to go and get to compile USB into my aMD64 kernel?
