Well, actually, searching for "modprobe usb-ohci" hang yields only 8 results, and the only relevant one is this question (with no answer) on a newsgroup: http://groups.google.com/groups?selm=34b40737.0109020745.184f0b13%40posting.google.com&oe=utf-8&output=gplain As for trying another kernel, s

well, u r not alone search google for "modprobe usb-ohci" and you will find many with the same problem. my guess is that you should try the latest vanilla kernel. possible 2.4.20 pre11. in the changelog there seem to be some bug fixes, maybe it will help. * - * - * Tzahi Fadida [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Ok, do you use Mandrake drivers for your nforce or NVidia's ones? If Mandrake, then I suggest to download, recompile and install the SRPM for your distribution: I *think* I've installed it (I did "rpm -i NVIDIA_nforce-1.0-0241.src.rpm"), but it did do anything (i.e. it's still hanging). I di
