USB 2.0 issues
I've been having boot problems with USB 2.0 (specifically, it won't.) I've tried both Mandrake 9.1 and RHL 9. I'm a complete noob here, so I have what hopefully is a pretty basic question. How do I disable USB 2.0 loading at startup. I am perfectly content using nothing but 1.1, but I need USB support to work GRUB (no PS/2 keyboard), and if I leave USB support enabled in the BIOS Linux freezes. If I disable it, I cannot work GRUB to switch to linux. I borrowed my roomie's PS/2 keyboard for a bit to test whether disabling USB from the BIOS allows linux to load, and it does, so I figure f I can somehow disable the OS from trying to load the USB 2.0 drivers at startup then everything will work fine (a theory, yes, but I have heard of some incompatabilities with the 2.0 drivers)
Sorry for the wordiness of this post, but it's early and my brain isn't workin in top gear.
Thanks in advance for your knowledge/time.
