Well, I had already looked there and it's not listed there: [rddunlap@midway 2.5.44]$ pwd /lib/modules/2.5.44 [rddunlap@midway 2.5.44]$ [rddunlap@midway 2.5.44]$ ls build@ modules.dep modules.isapnpmap modules.pcimap kernel/ modules.generic_string modules.parportmap modules.usbmap [rddunlap@midway 2.5.44]$ [rddunlap@midway 2.5.44]$ grep -ni keybdev * grep: build: Is a directory grep: kernel: Is a directory [rddunlap@midway 2.5.44]$ > > Now I recall that there used to be a "keybdev" and a "mousedev". > > mousedev is still living in drivers/input/mousedev.c, but I > > can't find a keybdev\* anywhere. > Now gets built into the input core, I believe.

Do you see the depmod call when you install the modules? Yes, 'depmod' is run, like so: if [ -r System.map ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System.map 2.5.44; fi So I now (again) have new, updated modules.* files, but the problem persists: [root@midway 2.5.44]# date Sun Oct 27 09:49:56 PST 2002 [root@midway 2.5.44]# ll -tr *.dep -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4070 Oct 27 09:36 modules.dep [root@midway 2.5.44]# lsmod Module Size Used by ohci-hcd 23529 0 (unused) uhci-hcd 27869 0 (unused) usbcore 90364 2 [ohci-hcd uhci-hcd] [root@midway 2.5.44]# modprobe hid modprobe: Can't locate module keybdev which is needed for hid but [root@midway 2.5.44]# insmod kernel/drivers/usb/input/hid.o [root@midway 2.5.44]# lsmod Module Size Used by hid 20523 0 (unused) so I'm still confused. > Have you got anything special in /etc/modules.conf? Sometimes that can screw > things up. Nope. It's useless as far as USB is concerned (for 2.5, since usb-uhci is gone). It contains: # pre-install pcmcia_core CARDMGR_OPTS=-f /etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia start alias usb-interface usb-uhci #alias sound-slot-0 emu10k1 #alias sound-slot-0 es1370 alias sound-slot-0 es1371 alias sound-slot-0 snd-ens1371 probeall scsi_hostadapter aic7xxx ide-scsi alias eth0 eepro100 # Thanks, ~Randy ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: ApacheCon, November 18-21 in Las Vegas (supported by COMDEX), the only Apache event to be fully supported by the ASF. http://www.apachecon.com _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, use the last form field at: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-usb-devel
