	Hello,

	this strange. This could be related to the possible lack of libusb you 
mention. On distributions, libraries are often split in two packages, one for 
runtime and another for development. You may have to check you have 
the 'devel' libusb package installed (there should be an /usr/include/usb.h 
file and a /usr/lib/libusb.a or libusb.so on your system).
	Also, when running configure, you may add the '--enable-libusb' switch to be 
sure libusb support is compiled in. To be sure run the following commands:
	make distclean
	./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --enable-libsub

Regards,
	Stef
