Hi all,

I don't get usb devices to work (on a hp omnibook 4150, USB 1.0) with Knoppix 3.7 HD installed or cdrom either.
I tried both kernels, I tried to mount /dev/sda1 (results in error message ".. is not a block device"). There is no icon on desktop when I boot with usb stick inserted.
When I plug it in/out there is no reaction in any logfile.
I started hotplug daemon which should manage usb (Am I right here?).
It issues errors during start (see syslog output)
Below the output of syslog, dmesg and mount.

I appreciate any help

Thank you
Britt
