I had to make the following change to get USB to work on my iBook:

   message at startup
   fs type usbdevfs not supported by kernel
   no doubt caused by line in /etc/fstab
   none /proc/bus/usb usbdevfs defaults 0 0
   Do I remove that line from fstab?
   Change it to :
   none /proc/bus/usb usbfs defaults 0 0
   then run:
   mount /proc/bus/usb

which I found on a Redhat support page. Now the pictures building up on the digital can be liberated and my photo blog can catch up to the progress being made in the back yard landscaping.

I’m sure there are other tweaks that need to be done to make the iBook useable, but the only one I can think of now is the ability to play mp3s. So I suppose that is next.
