I've used the backport of USB for Linux 2.2 and it's worked fine for me. USB Mouse (IntelliMouse Explorer), USB Keyboard (Microsoft Natural Keyboard Pro), the hub in the keyboard (see earlier), and the regular hub (Kensington). Everything seemed to work okay, although the keyboard was a bit noisy at times.

I built the modules and tried out a USB keyboard (generic) and a USB mouse (microshaft) for fun a while back. The keyboard worked no problem... the mouse didn't. Go figure. It did know that it was a mouse but not how to talk to it. So much for name brand hardware. 2.2.x doesn't have any USB out of the box so you'd have to get the module code separately and build them. The more recent distros include USB with 2.2.x kernels, so that may well be an option if you don't want to build your own kernel.
