Thanks, I'll subscribe.

Ok, bear with me on this one.  The device is a usb flashdrive.  It was 
working before I updated.  This is what I have with lsmod:
shaka: lsmod | egrep "uhci|usb|ohci"
usb_storage            70208  0
ohci1394               46084  0
ieee1394              298288  1 ohci1394
scsi_mod              134712  3 sd_mod,usb_storage,sg
uhci_hcd               46480  0
ohci_hcd               25984  0
usbcore               130268  6 usb_storage,hid,uhci_hcd,ohci_hcd

Should I be looking at a different driver than usb_storage?

Ok, is that for "Fedora Unstable"?

Ok, this is what I am using:
[development]
name=Fedora Core 2 development
baseurl=http://ftp.dulug.duke.edu/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/$basearch
    http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/core/development/$basearch
    http://redhat.secsup.org/fedora/core/development/$basearch
gpgcheck=1


thanks for the quick response.
