[K12OSN] USB hub not working on VXL thinclients ( TC4331 )

[Meelis]

Hi all!

The problem is that we started using VXL thinclients ( TC4331 ) as our 
terminals but their USB is not working. Logs show that they are known to the 
server but server.

Is there a solution or an update to make server understand how to use VXL 
thinclients ( TC4331 ) USB hub and allow clients to save to USB sticks? I 
have searched google and tryed several solutions that are for USB support 
but none of them works.
I'm using k12ltsp latest releace distro in my server ( since april or may 
2007? ). In the testserver I have latest edubuntu and VXL thinclients work 
fine there. As old server is in the use with about 60 users I cannot just 
switch to edubuntu as it's under testing and configuration :(

Thanks
