    I don't think that belongs in Linux/Documentation since it's
    specific to RedHat. Apart from the "which UHCI" confusion,
    you could use the /etc/rc.d/init.d/hotplug script to start
    up USB. (That's not part of RedHat though; they use kudzu to
    promote what seems like more of a static config model.)

    I have an RH 7.3 system that has this ... though I had to
    tweak it by hand since their setup stored multiple entries
    for some drivers, and didn't put EHCI first (so devices on
    USB 2.0 adapters would start out with one driver, disconnect,
    then reconnect using the "right" host controller):

    alias usb-controller ehci-hcd
    alias usb-controller1 ohci-hcd
    alias usb-controller2 uhci-hcd
    alias usb-controller3 usb-ohci
    alias usb-controller4 usb-uhci

    Note that the "uhci-hcd" would be "usb-uhci-hcd" if you're trying
    to experiment with that version on the 2.5 kernel, if you're not
    doing manual rmmod/modprobe (which I usually end up doing).

    That causes silly boot messages for the hardware or drivers you
    may not have, but works reliably/correctly for all current kernels.
