USB and hotplug troubleshooting

[Larry Holish <ljholish@speakeasy.net>]

Hello,

I'm trying to get USB and hotplug working to use my digital camera
(Canon S10). I believe I have the kernel configured correctly.

Here's where my USB problem might be (from syslog):

Aug 26 11:23:35 localhost kernel: ehci_hcd 00:10.4: remove state 3
Aug 26 11:23:35 localhost kernel: usb.c: USB disconnect on device 00:10.4-0 address 1
Aug 26 11:23:35 localhost kernel: usb.c: USB bus 1 deregistered
Aug 26 11:23:35 localhost kernel: PCI: Found IRQ 10 for device 00:10.4
Aug 26 11:23:35 localhost kernel: ehci_hcd 00:10.4: VIA Technologies, Inc. USB 2.0
Aug 26 11:23:35 localhost kernel: ehci_hcd 00:10.4: irq 10, pci mem e092e000
Aug 26 11:23:35 localhost kernel: usb.c: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 1
Aug 26 11:23:35 localhost kernel: ehci_hcd 00:10.4: USB 2.0 enabled, EHCI 1.00, driver 2003-Dec-29/2.4
Aug 26 11:23:35 localhost kernel: hub.c: USB hub found
Aug 26 11:23:35 localhost kernel: hub.c: 8 ports detected
Aug 26 11:23:35 localhost pci.agent[3478]:      ehci-hcd: loaded successfully
Aug 26 11:23:35 localhost pci.agent[3478]:      usb-uhci: blacklisted
Aug 26 11:23:35 localhost pci.agent[3478]:      8139too: already loaded
Aug 26 11:23:35 localhost pci.agent[3478]:      snd-emu10k1: loaded successfully
Aug 26 11:23:36 localhost usb.agent[3574]: Bad USB agent invocation
Aug 26 11:23:38 localhost usb.agent[3505]:      usbcore: blacklisted

It looks like modules are being "blacklisted", whatever that means. Can
any one nudge me in the right direction so I can get this fixed?

Thanks in advance,
