What I am wondering about is why I get ehci in my kernel when I do not ask for it: server# grep ehci LINT LINT:device ehci So there is a config directive available... server# grep hci AMD64 AMD64:device uhci # UHCI PCI->USB interface AMD64:device ohci # OHCI PCI->USB interface So I have not specified it... server# kldstat -v | grep ehci 135 ehci/usb Yet it is in my kernel?
