I don't see it in the list. Probably, although coming from the other side as a user I find it pretty annoying when there's somewhat gratuitous changes to the kernel config files that I don't really care about that cause my kernels to break. Doing it once is probably enough, but let me know if this is really, really important... Basically, calling it usb2 isn't as bad as renaming it back to "usb" as it's less disruptive in my book. If a lot of people poke me about renaming it, we'll get it done, but I don't really believe in it. -- - Alfred Perlstein
