USB & 2. 4 kernels

[Bud Rogers <budr@sirinet.net>]

I have a couple of mostly woody boxes.  Both have Logitech USB  Marble 
Trackman for mice.  Both mice work well with 2.2.19 kernels.  Yesterday 
I installed kernel-source-2.4.18 on one of the boxes and built a new 
kernel for it.  I included all the relevant USB modules when I 
configured the kernel.  The new kernel boots fine, X and KDE come up 
fine, but the Trackman doesn't work.  AFAICT, I have the same modules 
loaded as with the 2.2. kernel.  The only thing I find in dmesg or 
kern.log that seem unusual are the following:

May  3 14:09:24 mug kernel: hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1, 
assigned device number 2
May  3 14:09:24 mug kernel: usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout
May  3 14:09:24 mug kernel: usb.c: USB device not accepting new 
address=2 (error=-110)
May  3 14:09:24 mug kernel: hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1, 
assigned device number 3
May  3 14:09:24 mug kernel: usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout
May  3 14:09:24 mug kernel: usb.c: USB device not accepting new 
address=3 (error=-110)

My wife is also having usb problems with her Mandrake box running a 
2.4.8 kernel.  Are there issues with usb in 2.4?  I read everything I 
could find about usb in /usr/src/linux/Documentation and  poked around 
the archives a bit, but didn't find anything specific.
