Does this board really support both protocols? Or is one of them perhaps
another one on the motherboard?

On my system I boot with the printer off (and get a message
about the printer not being found) and when I power the printer
I see a message reporting that it has seen the printer (can't
remember offhand what it says, but I think it is saying what dev it
allocated it to).
If you don't see this then I guess you have a problem at
the usb hardware/driver level. There is usb stuff somewhere
in the /proc system (sorry I'm so vague) that should give you
more info. Also 'lspci' should tell you what the card thinks
its chipset is.

Is it a stock RH kernel?

Cameron.
