Ah, OK, that one just went into the latest Fedora 7 kernel.

All this information makes it obvious that even though upgrades are painful (given slow laptop disks, *really* painful), it looks as if there are major benefits to be gained.

As improved as USB drivers are, I assume that unloading the drivers is still desirable if no USB hardware is in use.
