This seems to be part of the problem. When I issued the mount command the
three USB Root hubs now show up in the KDE INfo Center. However no USB
devices are shown.

The device files for the scanner are the only things in dev.
Besides the scanner I have a USB web camera and a three in one card reader.
The easiest for me to check is the scanner.

I have already edited the epson scanner config file to point to the proper USB
device.

The easiset for me to test is the scanner.
Some things I noticed in synaptic is that devfsd is not installed, usbmgr is
also not installed and could not be installed unmet dependencies. I am still
using the knoppix initscripts and 2.4.22 xfs kernel. I am not sure if the
devfsd is used.
