USB devices not detected unless plugged in at boot

On my Lenny system, USB devices (mouse, external drive, etc.) are only
detected on boot. If plugged in after boot time, or removed and replugged,
they are not detected and cannot be used.

I have udev installed. I even reinstalled it without success. I miss the
old hotplug, which always worked perfectly for me, which I can't say about
udev.

Any suggestions?
