There are a lot more modules needed than just usbcore. usbcore is just *support* for USB.



Unfortunately when I want to connect my camera or mouse through USB
nothing happens. Problem is that /dev/usb directory is empty. Moreover
when I plug device into USB port there are no information about this
event in /var/log/messages. What's the problem? Maybe some kernel
modules are missing.. ?



You'll need uhci-hcd for a USB1 host controller, and/or ehci-hcd for USB2 host controller. usb-storage and sd_mod are needed if your camera acts as an external disk. For your mouse, usbhid is needed (IIRC).

you'll want usb-hid for hid-compliant devices (most of the USB devices) and uhci-hcd and ohci-hcd (a USB1 controller. Some motherboards need uhci-hcd, while others need ohci-hcd. It's safe to have them both.)
