I don't think I can help with the usb problems, but as far as the kernel source.

$ yum list kernel-sourcecode

Name                                Arch   Version                  Repo
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
kernel-sourcecode                   noarch 2.6.8-1.521             
fedora-us-2-updates

Why there is a kernel-source and kernel-sourcecode, I have no idea. 
If you want the src.rpm instead, go to your favorite mirror (listed at
http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors.html) and change to
directory updates/2/SRPMS/ and download the
kernel-2.6.8-1.521.src.rpm.  Not sure how to configure yum to look at
the SRPMS.
