DSL automatically chose uhci for this camera.  I will try (some time) 
adding ohci in addition or instead.

This is a 300MHz computer, one of the first to include USB (1998) so maybe 
it is 'older'.  Would DSL not know which one to pick?

We routinely disable usb keyboards in bios.
usb works here in DOS.

Next question - for BL2 with SW81 usb.i kernel, I went looking for the 
scsi_mod and sd_mod modules and they are not there.  What are the 
equivalents, if any?

Would I be better off with usb.s kernel?  Both have scsi support y and 
blk_dev_sd m (as does bare.i).
