Having pulled a large quantity of hair from my head I thought I would
save you guys the hastle of working out how to enable USB Mise and
Keyboards (Perhaps this can be added as an add on ?)

change to wherever you installed the LTSP (/opt/ltsp)

~  mkdir -p dev/input
~  touch /tmp/mice
~  ln -s /tmp/mice dev/input/mice
~  mknod tmp/mice c 13 63
~  chmod 0666 tmp/mice

modification to etc/lts.conf

~  change        X_MOUSE_PROTOCOL        = "imps/2"
~  change        X_MOUSE_DEVICE          = "/dev/input/mice"
~  add           RCFILE_01               = "usbdev"


Create a script in etc/rc.d called "usbdev"


~  #!/bin/sh
~  echo "USB Mouse Support..."
~  insmod usbcore
~  insmod usb-uhci
~  insmod input
~  insmod mousedev
~  insmod usbmouse
~  echo "USB Keyboard Support..."
~  insmod keybdev
~  insmod usbkbd

You may need to change the usb-uhci to whatever chip you use...


Make the script executable;


~ chmod +x etc/rc.d/usbdev

Thats it.... restart an LTSP client.. and you _should_ have USB Mouse
and keyboard support....

I will be creating a site for this mini-project shortly, to have a FAQ
etc...

Didn't wanna teach granny to suck eggs.. but I also wanted to cover for
people who don't know linux as well as some...

Hope that helps a few people..
