Hotplugging error


When connecting my USB mass storage digcam (Fuji Finepix3800), I find in /var/log/messages an error:

May 4 19:53:15 linux kernel: usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 3, frame# 1662
May 4 19:53:15 linux modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module block-major-8

Since AFAIK major 8 is SCSI I suppose it has something to do with USB which bases on the SCSI protocol.

I've a SuSE 8.1 with out-of-the-box kernel.

Any hints?

/var/log/messages and "dmesg' don't report a mass-storage scan? something like:
Code:
Initializing USB Mass Storage driver...
usb.c: registered new driver usb-storage
scsi1 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices
  Vendor: SIIG      Model: CompactFlash Car  Rev: 0113
  Type:   Direct-Access                      ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Attached scsi removable disk sda at scsi1, channel 0, id 0, lun 0
SCSI device sda: 15873 512-byte hdwr sectors (8 MB)
sda: test WP failed, assume Write Enabled
 sda: sda1
WARNING: USB Mass Storage data integrity not assured
USB Mass Storage device found at 2
USB Mass Storage support registered.
What happens if you "modprobe usb-storage" by hand?

Cheers,

I gave it already a try with posting all the ouput you asked for - but unfortunately with no solution.
Please hava a look at
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...threadid=57957

This is just another observation I made. The usb-storage module is already loaded. So modprobe does nothing than check this.

Thank you very much for sharing your ideas. What do you suppose me to try next?
