Where does FC3 put usb? Not under /dev

Hello all
I have my ext USB modem working fine under Mandrake 10. Shows up as /dev/usb/ACM/0, sym link to modem, no worries. (thanks to Maddog in the Mdk distro forum)

BUT! when i try to carry out the same proc in FC3 I find that there is no mention of usb at all under /dev. There is a choice of /dev/input/ttyACM0 in Network Config but no mention of ACM0 in /dev/input itself?
If i choose /dev/input/ACM0 I get an error code 2 ( cannot use 2 mutually exlusive options)?
Somebody tell me what is going on please before I cut my wrists

Code:

[~]$ ls /dev/usb/

auer0  dabusb0  dc2xx1  hiddev10  lp11      mdc80012  scanner12  ttyUSB13

auer1  dabusb1  dc2xx10  hiddev11  lp12      mdc80013  scanner13  ttyUSB14

...

This is from FC2. Are you sure you've got the USB modules loaded?

Thanks
I used usbview & got a result which appears to recognise my modem & mouse 9both generic) but has no mention of my scanner.
Also usb is under /proc/bus/usb & devices are 001 & 002 in folders of the same name. Both are empty & appear to be just place holders.
I've tried using a sym link but everything I do comes up with the same error code.
I can't use your suggestion because the /dev/usb is not there? How do I know if my usb modules are loaded??

I'm lost
:cry:
