I have a SONY-Z505S laptop, running a newly updated linux-2.4.4--I've been trying to get USB to work (as modules) and am having only partial success. I built the kernel with the INPUT/USB options shown below, and added the following to my /etc/modules.conf file: alias usb uhci pre-install usb modprobe -k mousedev pre-install mousedev modprobe -k hid alias char-major-13 usb and created a /dev/input/mice node (with mknod /dev/input/mice c 13 63). This works for a logitech mouse if I'm root. However, as a regular user it fails, basically because the pre-install steps (I've tried post-install's also) can't run modprobe. I'm also having no success at getting the /proc/bus/usb filesystem to automatically install, although I can get it to work manually with mount. Finally, I don't subscribe to this list and would appricate a copy of any response. Thanks in advance.
