And this is the state that my 2.6.24-rc_six_-mm1 tree is in already.

OK.

So either it didn't help here or it broke again by some later change or
there's some dumb PEBKAC error here.

Do you by chance forgot CONFIG_USB_?HCI_HCD=y ? I see empty usbfs here if
they are deselected.

Quite well-educated guess! In fact I had already discovered that
ohci-hcd fails to load, at all. Doh.
(however after going through all recent ohci.*hcd related LKML postings
it seems there's no report about such problems yet)

Sorry for barking up the entirely wrong tree!

For giggles, here's the output:

# modprobe ohci-hcd
FATAL: Error inserting ohci_hcd (/lib/modules/2.6.24-rc6-mm1-gate/kernel/drivers/usb/host/ohci-hcd.ko): No such device

dmesg:
ohci_hcd: 2006 August 04 USB 1.1 'Open' Host Controller (OHCI) Driver
ohci_hcd: block sizes: ed 64 td 64

(yes, that's all there is, despite CONFIG_USB_DEBUG being set)

The LED of a usb stick isn't active either, for obvious reasons.

And keep in mind that this is a (relatively old) OHCI-only machine...
(which had the 2.6.19 lsmod showing ohci-hcd just fine and working fine
with WLAN USB)

Now pondering whether to try -rc6 proper or whether to revert specific
guilty-looking USB changes...
And wondering how to properly elevate this issue (prompt Greg about it,
new thread, bug #, ...?)

Thanks,

Andreas Mohr
