BTW this is what dmesg reported about the controller. usb0: <Intel 82371AB/EB USB Host Controller> usb0: root device is not a hub I also didn't understand this statment and if it was relavent to my problem. > I've read somewhere that the current OHCI driver does not > support so-called bulk endpoints, which are used by the Kodak > DC240.
