**usb-storage 	23936 (0) (unused) there are lots of directories under the dev/usb level, but they all seem to be for mice, or scanners , and ( I think  one tablet sort of thing )

**Are you using Suse's default kernel (2.4.4 i believe) ?

yup .. there hasn't been any need to compile one , and they aren't a
