I dusted off my USA-19HS today, because I needed it, but since I've upgraded
to gutsy, I wound up here.

I tried Denis's .deb, but, although it's still 2.6.22-14-generic, some even 
lower
level version number moved from 46 to 47, and the package doesn't install.

Ok, so I set up to build kernels, then tried to follow the instructions 
referenced
above, but with limited success.  Probably I don't understand where all I have
to edit to re-enable the keyspan driver.  I tried debian/config/i386/config.386
since the recommended "oldconfig" invocation seems to build up config from
the config.* files in the arch directory (but I later noticed that it then seems
to delete the config thus generated), but still no keyspan stuff.

(The last time that I configured a kernel I used make menuconfig, which worked
fine.  But the kernel build system is already complex without adding the debian
layers around it, and I'm fairly lost)

So, Denis, if you're listening, can you give me a pointer as to which files to 
edit?
(And did you have to add the execute bit to the stuff in debian/scripts/misc in
order to run the oldconfig script?)

I figured that I'd comment here, rather than asking in a forum (just yet) to add
my voice to the chorus saying that disabling the user's hardware over an
abstract licensing tif, and not providing an obvious and simple way for the user
to make the opposite choice, is a less than fully correct thing to do.
