RE: 2.5.7,8-pre2 and USB

[Rob Hall]

I was previously running the 2.4.18 kernel... This is the first devel kernel
I have installed since 2.3.x :) I've noticed that according to dmesg, 2.4.x
inits USB MUCH later in the boot sequence than 2.5.7 and 8-pre2 do.

Thanks

Which previous kernel did compiling the usb-ohci driver into the kernel
successfully
work for you?
