Here are the usb modules I have on my 2.4.20 machine.

usb-storage            48704   1
scsi_mod               50092   5  [sg usb-storage sr_mod ide-scsi sd_mod]

usbcore                54272   1  [usb-storage snd usb-uhci hid]

I have the first 4 in my lsmod;
[root at localhost root]# lsmod

As you can see, I'm mising hid, sg, and snd (I think). May I insmod 
these modules (chicken to try with-out confirmation)?

Here's what I get for:

        [root at localhost root]# cat cat /proc/scsi/usb-storage-0/1
        cat: cat: No such file or directory
        cat: /proc/scsi/usb-storage-0/1: No such file or directory
        [root at localhost root]#

and  

[root at localhost root]# cdrecord -scanbus

So, may I insert those modules or upgrade the kernel?  Or both?
Thanks, again.
