Yep, tried that. When the drive is plugged in, nothing gets loaded. The USB 
Mass Storage guff in the logs mentioned earlier was from when I loaded the 
module manually. All that normally gets spewed out by dmesg is this...

[4296247.023000] usb 4-4: USB disconnect, address 3
[4296249.229000] usb 4-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 
4
[4296249.733000] usb 4-4: device not accepting address 4, error -71
[4296249.835000] usb 4-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 
5

So, usb-storage isn't loaded, and /dev/sda* isn't present. the drive also 
doesn't appear in disk manglement mmc in Windows apparently.
