It seems like usbcore.o is getting built and placed in drivers/usb in the source tree but not getting installed in /lib/modules after doing make modules_install. So, at bootup the usb subsystem isn't initialized because the usbcore module isn't present. I can still start usb manually by using modprobe usb-uhci and it works, but why isn't usbcore getting installed, and what use it is if usb-uhci seems to be enough? Copying it over by hand doesn't seem to work as you get unresolved symbols during a modprobe.
usbcore.o used to be installed with 2.4.18-3, which is the last kernel I compiled (distributed with RH 7.3). Here's a relevant section of my config.in: # # USB support # CONFIG_USB=y # CONFIG_USB_DEBUG is not set # CONFIG_USB_DEVICEFS is not set # CONFIG_USB_BANDWIDTH is not set # CONFIG_USB_LONG_TIMEOUT is not set # CONFIG_USB_EHCI_HCD is not set CONFIG_USB_UHCI=m CONFIG_USB_UHCI_ALT=m # CONFIG_USB_OHCI is not set CONFIG_USB_AUDIO=m ... CONFIG_USB_HID=m CONFIG_USB_HIDINPUT=y # CONFIG_USB_HIDDEV is not set CONFIG_USB_KBD=m Any clues on this? thanks, Pete __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
