USB NEWS FLASH!
The latest hotplug upgrade from SID now installs uhci-hcd without its being
requested in /etc/modules. This module still does not unload correctly,
however, so I guess I need to blacklist it so I can shutdown normally ...
ugh--blacklisting this does not work (the original usb-uhci had been
blacklisted as well and always loaded--at least ext3 is working!).
The new hotplug loads a lot of stuff, in fact:

(Those -5 errors apparently are not preventing the MIDI usb devices from
operating. Can cat /dev/midi1 and see my key-presses.)
However, the MIDI devices is the only one I have connected to one of the two
(older system) USB ports. Should not hotplug load any of these other should I
plug one of them in? I have no X-box, no dongles, no nothing.
