View Full Version : USB2 driver only in 2.4 kernel?

If I boot up Knoppix 3.6 with the default 2.4.27 kernel, I can do an "insmod ehci-hcd" to get high speed access to my USB2 card and attached drives. If I boot using the 2.6.7 kernel (knoppix26), even using the usb2 cheatcode, the card does not come up in high speed mode, and an "insmod ehci-hcd" gets a "file not found" message.

Is that module not available for Knoppix when running the 2.6.x kernel? Something else different about 2.6 that I've missed?

Thanks,
Ewan

Anyone else using USB2 with Knoppix 3.6 (or 3.7) and the 2.6 kernel?

Hadn't thought of trying that particular route...

At least that implies that the driver should be somewhere in the 2.6 kernel modules somewhere.

Do you "modprobe ehci-hcd" or just "modprobe ehci" ?

Thanks,
