I have installed ipc 10.5.6 and eveythings good execpt for the USB ports. I put in my USB flash drive in and it is not shown or does not load in lepord.
Even when I hook up a external HD it does not mount and is not loaded.
Does anyone know why this happens and how can I go about fixing the issue?

I just plugged in my USB flash drive and restarted and it still did not show.
My specs:
Asus A8n 32 sli deluxe
AMD 3700
Nvidia 7800gt 256mb
Sound Blaster X-Fi (disabled)
I got the ethernet, video card working. Having USB problems. If I go under about my mac section, then USB, it only shows my USB mouse and nothing else. Doesn't show other ports?
Since I have AMD I am using 9.5.0 kernel with seatbelt.kext. Oh and sorry I am using 10.5.7 Ikatos cd not ipc. Sry bout that.
are there any usb kext out there that i can use to solve my issue?
Please answer.

Have you tried rebooting with the device plugged in? If it comes up upon reboot but not if you plug it in after, you have a System.kext mismatch with your kernel version.
We also will need the specs of your system in case there are some kind of conflicts with your hardware that may also be causing your problem.
Good luck and welcome to the tinker-happy world of OSx86.
