Did you mount /boot before you copied the kernel? Of course, thats how the new kernel gets booted. It's hard to debug this because you haven't given us much information. What do you mean, "all show up in dmesg"? The exact output would be useful. Yeah it would be helpful if I had the exact output. What do you mean, "the modules are not available"? There's no reason that modules should not be found, No kidding? unless you're running a different version of the kernel than you installed the modules for. absolutely not. What does uname -a give you? Whichever kernel I have booted at the time I ran the cmd. I'm switching between the latest unmasked versions of xfs-sources and gaming-sources. Gaming-sources kernel is what worked for me before the reinstall. Same exact kernel. -Heschi The one thing for sure is the MS optical mouse lights up @ boot when the kernel works. Doing the exact same method of kernel configuration, should result in the exact same functions from the kernel. When I install usb mouse support modularly and try to load insmod,modprobe the drivers. A few result in error with the box saying no such modules exist!? Why I don't know, I told them to be compiled. I don't get it. I will update this message when I re-compile this kernel. Or when I get someone who seriously wants to offer help. Not asking me if /boot is mounted. Lets start with the non-moronic reasons this might not be working and work are way back to am I an idiot please?;) -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
