No, but

[root at utd65257 ~]# kldload umass
kldload: can't load umass: File exists
[root at utd65257 ~]# kldstat
Id Refs Address    Size     Name
 1    9 0xc0400000 906518   kernel
 2    1 0xc0d07000 14324    snd_hda.ko

 4    1 0xc0d67000 6a32c    acpi.ko
 5    1 0xc70a5000 22000    linux.ko
[root at utd65257 ~]# kldunload umass
kldunload: can't find file umass

Doesn't make much sense to me.  I'm not very familiar with how the usb system 
works, so I'm not sure where to look to find the problem.  There's no 
/dev/umass either.
