On most of my servers I use a variety of external USB devices.

Under F7 they are not. I have seen this a few times in the past when
kernels changed under FC6, so I know a fix is probably on the way.
I can't use F7 without USB working from power up. Someone would have to
run around cycling power or hotplugging all the devices around the shop
and in the field...not usable as-is.
What is a decent workaround? Can I rmmod/insmod something or otherwise
somehow rescan the USB from a script?
There is a udev workaround I've been using for months now during f7 devel to
solve this in bz#204396 or see my patch.
Is there a new kernel on the way?
It ain't been fixed as of kernel 3226.fc7. start making noise in the above bug
number.

Thanks. The bz is a little hard for me to follow.
I added a modprobe of usb-storage and a sleep just before I need to
access the device(s).
Total hack workaround but it gets me there.
