Failure to Load usb-ohci Driver Message on Systems Running
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (Version 2.1)
A failure message may be displayed when Initializing USB controller (usb-ohci)
appears during startup. Update versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (version 2.1) prior to Update
4 mistakenly attempt to load this driver for the USB 2.0 controller. Red Hat Enterprise Linux
(version 2.1) does not support USB 2.0. To avoid this erroneous message on versions prior to
Update 4, remove the line in /etc/modules.conf that causes usb-ohci to load. Otherwise, install
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (version 2.1) Update 4 to resolve the problem.
