I compile mine directly into the kernel; some people prefer modules, to keep
the size of the kernel down.

Well, that part is right, since you don't have any REAL scsi adapters.

This may be a problem. According to the web page, Vendor 0x4e6 is
04e6 Shuttle Technology Inc.
and device 0x101 is
0101 E-USB ATA Bridge
which is something funky and specific to your laptop, since I don't see this
on mine. At a guess, I'd say this is the hardware that acts as a bridge
between your USB bus and your ATA (or IDE) bus. And Linux doesn't know what
to make of it.

This means (I think) that you choose "USB mass storage support" when
compiling the kernel.

Try 'cat /proc/bus/usb/devices' - does it show up there?
(BTW, realize that I'm just about as much of a total newbie at the
USB-on-Linux stuff as you are, but we'll see what we can come up with :-)
My log: (I have 2 USB ports on motherboard; I have an external 4 port hub
(as expansion)); into this, I have plugged in
a MS SideWinder joystick
an Epson Perfection 636U scanner
an Epson Photo Stylus 870 printer.
I compiled in support for HID (Human Interface Device [necessary for
joysticks and such]), USB printer, USB scanner, and Wacom
(I added in Wacom support - that's a drawing tablet - because I wanna buy
one in future)

But I don't have this "bridge" device you have. Think that's your problem;
once you can get that device recognized, it may read any actual external USB
devices you have THRU it. Then - hopefully - you should be OK.
