USB Drive on Current

Yet another user out here trying to get a USB flash drive working. I've got a
number of other USB devices working nicely, like an HP printer and a Logitech
mouse. Uncounted hours have gone into getting a USB flash drive to work
though.
First problem here is that my system doesn't seem to recognize that a drive
has been inserted. After running through edits on umass.c, usbdevs, and
scsi_da.c I managed to get a 32M ACDC drive to work. Problem is, it only
works on boot up. It detects when I detach the drive, but no further notice
upon putting it back in.
I've tried 2 other USB drives, and none of them seem to be detected upon
insertion. These same drives I've had luck with getting to work on 4.10 on
an identical PC. What's the magic I'm missing here?
Running with:
FreeBSD 5.2-CURRENT #0: Tue Jun 1 12:27:50 PDT 2004
I have usbd and devd running from rc.conf.
