USB Devices

I am trying to get a flash card reader to work with my machine. My question is, are all of my USB ports screwed up? Do I need to buy a seperate USB controller? I does not appear that the onboard USB ports work.

In trying to get it to work, I typed cat /proc/scsi/scsi and got this:

[root@KretschNet root]# cat /proc/scsi/scsi
Attached devices:
[root@KretschNet root]#

then I typed:
/sbin/modprobe usb-storage

then:
lsmod
Module Size Used by
usb_storage 62345 0
snd_mixer_oss 17217 0
