These are there.

I'm still having trouble with this. My /proc/bus/usb only has this:

-r--r--r--    1 root     root            0 Jun 18 14:21 drivers
-r--r--r--    1 root     root            0 Jun 18 14:21 devices
dr-xr-xr-x    1 root     root            0 Jun 18 14:21 001/

001 has an 18 byte file 001. When I tried to mount /proc/bus/usb I got
the message
mount: according to mtab, usbdevfs is already mounted on /proc/bus/usb

I can't figure this out. In addition, when I boot with devfs, the
expected /dev/usb entries are not there. (In fact, there is nothing
under /dev/usb.) But when I boot without devfs, I can use
/dev/usb/ttyUSB1 to sync. 

This usb stuff is a mystery to me. If anyone can help with devfs and usb
in general, I'd be very grateful.

(I'm running kernel 2.4.19-pre10 with xfs 1.1, pilot-link 0.10.99, on a
PIII, with a Palm M515.)
