OK.  I didn't catch the difference.  Now what has me baffled is that 
/etc/modules says only:

input
keybdev
ntfs
3c59x

No mention of dc2xx.  Something else must be making it load as a module 
because lsmod still shows:

debian:/home/ken/downloads# debian:/etc# lsmod

]
debian:/etc#

Still confused . . .

Thanks for the help so far.  It is all interesting!
