This is rather vague. What does insmod/modprobe say? Is there really *no* change to the kernel log? Could we have some info about your system and kernel? > Also, anyone know what the difference is between hid and mousedev > modules? Is either one of them better for a usb mouse? ( That is > assuming I can get usb-uhci to load) The uhci driver allows the kernel to manage the USB controller. The HID module allows the kernel to manage human interface devices (keyboards, mice, joysticks etc). The mousedev (and also evdev, joydev, and keybdev) provide interfaces to user programs (X, gpm) that allow them to actually use the device. In short, mousedev and hid do different things: if you want to use your mouse, you need both. -- Bruce J.A. Nourish <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
