Unable to find USRP #0 in kernel 2.6.24-rc4-gd7f0b481 on Fedora 7

I installed kernel of 2.6.24-rc4-gd7f0b481 for Fedora 7 in PS3 following
http://www.gnuradio.org/trac/wiki/PS3FC7Install.
The linux system runs well. Then I installed GNU radio as told in above
URL.
Everything went well too. However, I could not get USRP work. I am not
sure
whether it is because of the new kernel or something else. Therefore, I
listed
the test script and output below for running usrp_benchmark_usb.py and
also the
output from dmesg to test USB connection.

Your help will be very appreciated!

Check with dmesg for usb connection as below:

Did you setup udev as the wiki page instructed?
Are you in group usrp?

Eric,

I strictly followed the setup udev as the wiki page:
http://www.gnuradio.org/trac/wiki/UdevConfig. However, because the new
kernel 2.6.24-rc4-gd7f0b481uses different sysfs from previous kernel, (I
browsed through google to get this information), I can’t examine
/dev/bus/usb after plugging in a USRP simply by the command

$ ls -lR /dev/bus/usb

That’s why I listed dmesg result to give more information about USRP
connection.

On the other hand, I assume the above instruction is used for allowing
non-root users to access the USRP. I tried root to run

./usrp_benchmark_usb.py

I also tried non-root user within the group usrp. Both results are
same as I showed in the previous email.

Thanks,
Andrew
