Greetings Robert: Good question. Also, I know next to nothing about USB, the only reason I made it work now is to see if that silly cam would operate with mfd support under Linux. :) The box is about 1 year old now. I picked up the cheap motherboard and AMD-1800xp online. The chipset is via. Here is lspci -vvv: 00:11.2 USB Controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. UHCI USB (rev 1b) (prog-if 00 [UHCI]) Subsystem: Unknown device 0925:1234 Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- Status: Cap+ 66Mhz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- Latency: 32, cache line size 08 Interrupt: pin D routed to IRQ 11 Region 4: I/O ports at dc00 [size=32] Capabilities: [80] Power Management version 2 Flags: PMEClk- DSI- D1- D2- AuxCurrent=0mA PME(D0-,D1-,D2-,D3hot-,D3cold-) Status: D0 PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=0 PME- You would have to ask others on the list about pure usb during installs. Seems to me I have read several stories about non-ps2 installs using a specific boot kernel. The keyboard I use today is about 8 years old and I don't know what I would do if I had to replace it! - -- Jaye Inabnit\ARS ke6sls\/A GNU-Debian linux user\/ http://www.qsl.net/ke6sls If it's stupid, but works, it ain't stupid.
