Ubuntu does indeed have ehci_hcd.  Let me check Knoppix...

This time Knoppix gives me disk icons, last time it gave me thumb
drive icons.  And this time I am at 0.75 MB/s.

On to lsmod and friends: No, there seems to be no ehci_hcd anywhere on
this machine.  The "find" utility seems to return too quickly, but
modprobe hasn't heard of it.


Looks like Knoppix isn't uber everything.  Anyone have a favorite live
CD that does have ehci_hcd?  


Thanks,

P.S.  Let's here it for "screen" which lets me start an e-mail, reboot
my notebook on a different OS, and reconnect to my basement server to
finish the e-mail.
