If you use devfs (I do) then the device file will automagically exist iff the device exists. (also, '/dev/input/mice' is a file that outputs all mice interraction simultaneously) If you want to see if the device is working (IOW the kernel is configured correctly), put this in your fstab usbdevfs /proc/bus/usb usbdevfs defaults 0 0 and look under /proc/bus/usb and see if any devices exist. -D -- If Microsoft would build a car... ... Occasionally your car would die on the freeway for no reason.
