Okay, that's pretty interesting.

I did:

$ modprobe -n -v --first-time 
input:b0011v0002p0001e0000-e0,1,2,k110,111,112,r0,1,amlsfw
WARNING: Not loading blacklisted module evbug
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.16-rc5-486/kernel/drivers/input/tsdev.ko 
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.16-rc5-486/kernel/drivers/input/mousedev.ko 
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.16-rc5-486/kernel/drivers/input/evdev.ko 

But /dev/input did not exist and a "lsmod | grep mouse" shows:

psmouse                34564  0 

i.e. mousedev did not actually get loaded!  When I manually do a
"modprobe mousedev", /dev/input comes into existence.

So why does it say it's loading mousedev.ko when it's not?



For reference again:
