Anyone else see USB keyboard problems on FC2 with the new '770' kernel?

	FYI, my USB keyboard, mouse, and flash drive all work fine
with kernel-2.6.10-1.12_FC2 and kernel-2.6.10-1.14_FC2 (and all the
FC2 and RH 7, 8, 9 kernels over the last couple of years).  I have
managed to get pictures off of my girlfriend's camera, but otherwise I
don't use USB much, so maybe I've just had lucky choices.
