Re: [gentoo-dev] Linksys Wireless USB

[Tom Prado <tprado@charter.net>]

You have absolutely nothing in /proc/bus/usb?  Or do you have usb loaded 
but the device is not listed in /proc/bus/usb/devices?  If the former, it 
sounds like you don't have the usb drivers even loaded or you don't have 
usbdevfs loaded.  

Make sure you have USB compiled in the kernel (or as a module).

Do you see any USB messages when you do dmesg | grep usb?

If you have it as a module, make sure you have usbcore loaded, and one of 
these depending on your hardware: usb-uhci, uhci, or usb-ohci.

Good luck.

Tom
