Hello all, I have followed the book all the way to the end, and now have a working system, sort of. I am able to boot and log into LFS-7.3. It is of course a bare, minimal system but it does seem to be functional. There is one problem however. Approximately every 60 seconds the mouse is disconnected then immediately reconnected. A sample of the console log is:
[...] usb 1-8.2.2.2: USB disconnect, device number 25 [...] usb 1-8.2.2.2: new low-speed USB device number 26 using ehci-pci [...] usb 1-8.2.2.2: New USB device found, idVendor=046D, isProduct=c05a [...] usb 1-8.2.2.2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber-0 [...] usb 1-8.2.2.2: Product: USB Optical Mouse [...] usb 1-8.2.2.2: Manufacurer: Logiech [...] usb 1-8.2.2.2: Input: Logiech USB Optical Mouse as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/usb1/1-8/1-8.2/1-8.2.2/1-8.2.2.2/1-8.2.2.2:1.0/input/input32 [...] usb 1-8.2.2.2: Hid-generic 0003:046D:C05A.001A: input,hidraw0: USB HID v1.11 Mouse [Logitech USB Optical Mouse] on usb-0000:00:1d.7-8.2.2.2/input0 This occurs both before and after I login. What I have noticed is the device number and Hid-generic value increments by 1 each time. The next iteration of the above is ...

The keyboard appears to be functioning correctly.
