USB2 definitely isn't in the stock 2.4 kernels (yet, if ever). I think I saw, though, that it was in 2.4.20-ac?? RH may also have backported USB2 to their latest kernels. What, if any, are the ramifications of running a RH kernel on a debian box? -- +------------------------------------------------------------+ | Ron Johnson, Jr. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | | Jefferson, LA USA http://members.cox.net/ron.l.johnson | | | | "they love our milk and honey, but preach about another | | way of living" | | Merle Haggard, "The Fighting Side Of Me" | +------------------------------------------------------------+ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
