Problems using USB-devices in 5.2.1

Hello.

I've encountered a problem using USB Flash drives and USB HDD.

I have 2 PCs, first - Intel Pentium PII 233MHz on LX chipset with Intel USB controller, USB1.0 (let's call this pc1),

and second - Intel Pentium Xeon 2.4GHz (E7505 Chipset based server) with SCSI, LSILogic MegaRAID controllers (LSI MegaRAID SCSI 320 v1.04, HA -0 (Bus 3 Dev 2) Standard FW 1L19) and Intel 82801DB USB controller, USB1.0. There is also 4 SCSI HDDs (two Maxtor Atlas10K 35Gb and two 70Gb) in two RAID 1 arrays - amrd0 and amrd1 respectively. BIOS - PhoenixBIOS 4.0 Release 6.0 (let's call this pc2).

FreeBSD-5.2.1-RELEASE is installed on both pc1 and pc2 (using GENERIC kernel).
Thus,
device scbus
device da
device pass
device uhci
device ohci
device ehci
device usb
device umass
are present in kernel config. And usbd_enabled="yes" in rc.conf.
Systems are fresh-installed and no configs were changed on both PCs.

USB-Drives using on pc1 is problemless. usbd is reporting on 1st console attach/detach actions, umassX and daX devices are created properly, then, mount - is no question, it works fine.

But, the problem is pc2.
When i attach either Flash-drive, or USB HDD, usbd keeps silence and doesn't report anything. So umass and da devices (or smth else) are NOT created. And so, i can't use any usb-drives at all. Usb mouse is working fine and usbd tells its words on 1st console when i detach mouse.

Can't figure out what's wrong, so i want ask you to help to solve this problem.
Posting in BSD-forums and maillists, reading mans, docs, howtos and handbooks, talking with bsd-admins didn't give me any solution.

In addition,
(from pc2)
uname -a is FreeBSD xx.xx.xx 5.2.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE #0: Sun Sep  5 00:59:48 MSD 2004     root at xx.xx.xx:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GOLD  i386

Yes, kernel here is not GENERIC, but GOLD. GOLD is just a GENERIC kernel recompiled with "device acpi" on someone's advice. But it didn't solve any problem, the behaviour of the system is the same as with GENERIC.

dmesg is
su-2.05b# dmesg

Flash-drives are SanDisk 128Mb and JetFlash 256Mb,
USB HDD is Maxtor EXT 200Mb USB2.0 (As i remember... Windows definition is just USB Mass Storage device)
USB hubs on pc2 are not broken. They worked fine on previous MS Windows 2003 Server (i wish it would be vice-versa, windows can't manage it, but FreeBSD - can in any configuration :).

I also tried to run usbd with -d -v flags and also tried to connect IRExpress IR-port. Didn't do the trick. usbd on pc1 see it and reports, on pc2 - don't. It looks like no USB-devices want to work on pc2 (exept working usb-mouse).
Maybe i must deal with any scsi or raid controllers proper configuration?

Sorry for bothering, but maybe this case can also improve any doc, man or howto and worth mentioning in them...
I would really appreciate your help, thanks anyway!

Best regards,
 Max K.
