I'm still using KDE 3.5.10 at the moment. I'm in the process of downloading KDE 4 now. Dial-up takes a while. Anyway, I want to get this camera and printer thing fixed before I upgrade anything else. When I run udevadm monitor, I get nothing at all. I cut my puter off when I went to town but when I booted back up, it still does nothing at all. Nothing USB works. I'm in the process of a emerge -ev @system right now. I hope maybe something just needs to be recompiled against something else and will then work. Still open to ideas tho. It looks and smells like a kernel issue and I can't seem to get a working kernel right now, gcc problem. Thanks. Dale :-) :-)
