Hello Folks

I need usb_serial module loaded, but it doesn't seem to be available?

[root at morgansmachine ~]# insmod usb_serial
insmod: can't read 'usb_serial': No such file or directory
[root at morgansmachine ~]# lsmod | grep usb
usb_storage            73601  0
scsi_mod              120013  5 usb_storage,sg,sr_mod,libata,sd_mod
[root at morgansmachine ~]# rmmod usb_storage
[root at morgansmachine ~]# lsmod | grep usb
[root at morgansmachine ~]# insmod usb_storage
insmod: can't read 'usb_storage': No such file or directory
[root at morgansmachine ~]#

Hmm, so I can remove usb_storage but can't insert it again - perhaps the 
same is true for usb_serial?  What should I use to load usb_storage and 
usb_serial?  Am I missing something obvious?

Thanks,
Morgan.
