Run "lsmod" as root and scan the list to see if you have any usb kernel

Have run lsmod as you suggested and found nothing that looks USB-related in the list. Which ones do I need and where can I get them? I assume they aren't on the RH 8.0 distro, as I didn't turn down anything related to USB when I installed. One internet source recommended running lsusb, and I got a message that it isn't on my system.
