| Can anyone point me in the right direction for configuring USB on redhat
9? I have a usb digital camera that I want to use, but it seems that
the USB ports are not working under redhat 9.
anyhelp?

Nice camera, but I do not see it listed at;
http://www.qbik.ch/usb/devices/devices.php
But that might change later, new devices are being added all the time.

This is good, now with the camera plugged in check what you see from the
command; 'cat /proc/scsi/scsi' .

Hmm.... I don't know how many scsi drives may be connected, but in general
the usb device would be the next available drive. If you have none then it
would be sda, one it would be sdb and so on. If you see your camera is
listed from above then try something like;
fdisk -l /dev/sdX where X is the next available drive.
If you get good results, then try mounting the device with something like;
mkdir /mnt/camera <-- if you don't have one already for the camera
mount -t vfat /dev/sdX1 /mnt/camera
See; 'man fdisk', 'man fstab' and 'man mount' for the details.
I don't know enough about your chip set, this might work or it might cause
a few errors. Edit your /etc modules.config file and do try the following
changes;
The line that reads, alias usb-controller usb-uhci change to read as;
alias usb-controller1 usb-uhci
Add a line that reads(might cause errors); alias usb-controller ehci-hcd
Then check again with the steps above if everything is OK.

| I own a "cheap n nasty" camera that isn't listed as supported and had
the exact same trouble you are having. .... I thought my usb's were not
working too. I couldn't find any info on how to re-configure them.
My solution was to re-install RH 9 again with the camera plugged into
the usb cable during installation. .... I decided that this was the
fastest way for my PC to recognise the hardware.
After the usb & camera problem have been sorted, you will have to have
the camera plugged in at the time of boot-up to see any images.
After boot-up "Right click" the mouse anywhere on your screen and a
small menu appears.
Select "Disks" for all your removable drives to be displayed.
Your camera (which is a removable storage device), will be amongst any
floppy drive, DVD & CD drives you have. (Provided the camera was
connected at boot-up. Otherwise it will be omitted).
When you select the camera option, an icon will appear on your screen to
indicate that it has been mounted.
I think you can work the rest of it out from here.......
