I imagined you had it enabled in the BIOS because you said it worked in 
winblows. What kernel version are you using? I have had varied results 
with USB stuff in the 2.6 level, sometimes it rocks, sometimes it's 
weird. Fedora Core 2 shipped with 2.6.358something and I always have to 
upgrade that to work with USB flash drives, etc.
