I have two machines, including my laptop, and I tried adding a USB mouse and keyboard to both, and they both worked. I think we need more details in order for us to be able to help solve this problem; and this might explain the lack of response earlier -- people might not be seeing the same issues, and thus can't debug it without more information. > Same setup works with you-know-what. Then perhaps you-know-what _is_ the better solution, as far as you are concerned. I don't think we should be brow beating people into usding free software -- it should be their cohice. If they do not like what free software has to offer, and like some other solution better, we should respect that decision. > ["snip no fix yet"s] > Ok, so how does one get a newer kernel, install it, and get all the > memory available? $ apt-cache search linux-image $ aptitude install <linux-image-foo of your choice> $ update-grub (or the like, if you have not edited /etc/kernel-img.conf) $ reboot. >>> She's sorta impulsive, sometimes. >>> >>> Partly, she also wants access to a disc which was formatted by >>> Windows NT, and which she considers she has no access to at present. >> >> libntfs-3g12.
