I am having trouble getting my USB mouse to work after a kernel recompile, Iam using kernel 2.4.18-18.8.0 which I downloaded through up2date. After I tested the new kernel and it worked I removed the old kernel with rpm -e kernel-2.4.18-14. As a test I recompiled the kernel using the original kernel config file (kernel-2.4.18-i686.config). When I boot the system withthe newly compiled kernel which is identical to the original kernel my USB mouse will not work. I cat /dev/input/mice and it opens the device but when I move the mouse nothing appears on the screen and the mouse dose not work in X. If I do the same think with the original kernel I get characters on the screen and the mouse works in X. I compared the list of modules that are loaded with each of the kernels, and they are identical. However when I looked more closely at the list of referring modules (the module names inside the brackets) this is what I saw:
For the kernel that works I had the following referring modules for the input module [mousedev keybdev hid] for the kernel that dose not work I had this list of referring modules for the input module [mousedev keybdev] for some reason when the input module is loading it is not connecting to the hid module. Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks Jeff Turley -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
