Well, this is interesting.  I swapped out the mobo.  First, it has the
UEFI BIOS thing.  That was interesting for sure.  I'm not complaining
but not used to it and wasn't expecting it either.  Second, it works
except for the third part.  Third thing is, no mouse worky.  It works in
the BIOS but not in the OS.  I have gpm set to start and it doesn't work
in a console or a GUI.  I tried everything I can think of, no mouse.  I
had to swap again.  I'm back to my old mobo.  Here is the kicker.  I
plugged the USB mouse into the old mobo, it works just fine.  It works
in KDE, console etc.  It just works.  The only kernel change I made was
for the chipset on the mobo.  I left the USB stuff alone.  

Instead of me posting a lot of worthless stuff, what do y'all need me to
post?  Keep in mind, I'm on my old mobo and it works on here.  I got the
kernel config tho.  It's a start, I hope?   I followed this wiki howto.

Thoughts?  What do you need to figure this out?
