Yet another user out here trying to get a USB flash drive working.  I've got a 
number of other USB devices working nicely, like an HP printer and a Logitech 
mouse.  Uncounted hours have gone into getting a USB flash drive to work 
though.

First problem here is that my system doesn't seem to recognize that a drive 
has been inserted.  After running through edits on umass.c, usbdevs, and 
scsi_da.c I managed to get a 32M ACDC drive to work.  Problem is, it only 
works on boot up.  It detects when I detach the drive, but no further notice 
upon putting it back in.

I've tried 2 other USB drives, and none of them seem to be detected upon 
insertion.  These same drives I've had luck with getting to work on 4.10 on 
an identical PC.  What's the magic I'm missing here?

Running with:
FreeBSD 5.2-CURRENT #0: Tue Jun  1 12:27:50 PDT 2004

I have usbd and devd running from rc.conf.
