not usb ...

okay, i put them all in /etc/modules ...

i can't get the usb module to load. i put those alias lines in
/etc/modules/aliases, and then ran update-modules.
but if i try to manually modprobe usb-ohci, i get the following:
spycellar:~# modprobe usb-ohci
/lib/modules/2.4.20-1-686/kernel/drivers/usb/usb-ohci.o: init_module: No such device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO
or IRQ parameters.
You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg
/lib/modules/2.4.20-1-686/kernel/drivers/usb/usb-ohci.o: insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.20-1-686/kernel/drivers/usb/usb-ohci.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.20-1-686/kernel/drivers/usb/usb-ohci.o: insmod usb-ohci failed

thanks for this. i still need the right modules in my kernel before
it can work, though :)
