When I disable it, the keyboard and mouse cease functioning, as well. That was the only setting I could find in the BIOS related to USB. I suppose that means the on-board USB controller is one not supported by existing drivers? Or at least ones not listed in the GENERIC config on which I based my kernel (all I added was the ath drivers for my wireless)? I don't know which chipset it is, but my guess is, since the on-board video and LAN is an nVidia chipset, that the USB controller probably is, as well.
