i think that the latest kernel has broken usb on my amd box. the modprobe for ohci_hcd fails now. i have tried up and smp. i am going to drop back a version on the kernel to see if that does fix it. anyone else seeing anything similar?

it turned out to be legacy usb support in my bios. i had enabled that recently to get grub to talk to the usb keyboard, but with that enabled the kernel gets confused when trying to initialize the usb. i'll have to investigate usb support for grub or usb boot options to undo whatever the bios legacy support is doing. any pointers would be great.
