Hi, I seem to be having a problem with the latest backport patch with regards to my ms intellimouse explorer usb mouse. Namely, it doesn't seem to want to admit the existance of char-major-13. Here's what is going wrong as far as I can tell: - /proc/devices does not show 13 input under character devices - my device node for the mouse is as follows: crw-r--r-- 1 root root 13, 32 Apr 28 09:17 /dev/usbmouse - cat /dev/usbmouse return /dev/usbmouse: No such device - gpm returns the following: gpm: gpm startup succeeded modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module char-major-13 oops() invoked from gpm.c(958) gpm[470]: /dev/mouse: No such device I have tested it with both usb mouse and usb keyboard attached, and just the usb mouse attached. If I hook up a usb keyboard as well, the keyboard works fine, so it appears that usb working properly. Hardware: - Abit BP6 (using usb ports on the motherboard.) - Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer - Logitech USB Wheel Mouse Software: - Redhat 6.2 - kernel is 2.2.15pre20 with some other patches added in I've tested this with both smp and up kernels, does the same thing. I had mentioned in an earlier private email to Vojtech Pavlik that I was also having problems with 2.3.99-pre6-7 and 2.3.99-pre6 final kernels crashing when the kernel first attempts to load that went away if I removed usb from the kernel. That problem looks to be a freak kernel build screwup on my part, as 2.3.99-pre6 seems to work fine for me now. Here is what I have selected as far as USB options: CONFIG_USB=y CONFIG_USB_DEBUG=y CONFIG_USB_DEVICEFS=y CONFIG_USB_UHCI=y CONFIG_USB_HID=y CONFIG_INPUT_KEYBDEV=y CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV=y CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_SCREEN_X=1280 CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_SCREEN_Y=1024 CONFIG_INPUT_EVDEV=y If I've forgotten any needed info, let me know. -Harold -- "Life sucks, deal with it!" --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
