beaglebone usb problems

[wynkoop at wynn.com]

Greeting-

Today I grabbed the lattest kernel and usreland sources with csup onto my
beaglebone with the idea of building a kernel that would support usb.

I used the default BEAGLEBOARD config file that I found in the ARM branch of
/usr/src/sys.  After a crash on building because of lack of memory I got the
new kernel built and installed by adding some swap space.  Not the best
thing to do to an SD card, but a needed evil.

I completed the build of the kernel and installed it.  Upon reboot the system
is still not seeing the USB BUS.

I have verified that it sees the USB bus under the provided gnu/linux
distribution.

Plugging in a supported USB wifi device under Linux produced the following:

So I think I can say the hardware is working.

Under FreeBSD 10 we see the following:

root at beaglebone:~ # dmesg | grep -i usb
am335x_pmic0: TPS65217B ver 1.1 powered by USB and AC
root at beaglebone:~ # 


In other words we do not even see the bus let alone any wifi or storage device
inserted into the bus.

My kernel config has the needed stuff I believe.  Here is the snippit.

# USB support
device          usb
options         USB_DEBUG
#options        USB_REQ_DEBUG
#options        USB_VERBOSE
device          musb
device          umass
device          scbus                   # SCSI bus (required for SCSI)
device          da                      # Direct Access (disks)

# Ethernet
device          loop      
device          ether
device          mii
device          smscphy
device          cpsw
device          bpf

# USB ethernet support, requires miibus
device          miibus
device          axe                     # ASIX Electronics USB Ethernet




This test was done under FreeBSD 10 built from sources updated today I can 
not even see any usb bus let alone any devices.  

Does anyone have ideas?

Thanks!
