I've a problem with lsusb where it doesn't provide me with any usb information anymore! :(

The end of dmesg shows me the following:

Code:

and fdisk tels me the drives are there:

Code:
 fdisk -l /dev/sda /dev/sdb

Disk /dev/sda: 2075 MB, 2075131904 bytes
64 heads, 62 sectors/track, 1021 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 3968 * 512 = 2031616 bytes

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System

Disk /dev/sdb: 30.0 GB, 30005821440 bytes
64 heads, 32 sectors/track, 28615 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 2048 * 512 = 1048576 bytes

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sdb1   *           1          49       50160   83  Linux
/dev/sdb2              50        2003     2000896   82  Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sdb3            2004        9817     8001536   83  Linux
/dev/sdb4            9818       28615    19249152    5  Extended
/dev/sdb5            9818       27294    17896432   83  Linux


However there is no output from lsusb....and there used to be! 8O

Has anyone else lost the use of lsusb from the sys-apps/usbutils package.

The only upgrade I can see for this package is from 0.11-r5 to 0.71-r1, however the old one has now been removed from the portage tree so I can't even go back and test :x

well you could look for it and install manually to see if the upgrade was the problem or not

The USB devices are there and working ok as they have listed under fdisk as /dev/sda and /dev/sdb. I can partition, format and mount them too! :?

Full output from `fdisk -l` is as follows:
