What you need to do is compare your kernel configuration files and see what differancies there are for USB, quite possably INPUT devices you would need to look for, things to check.. CONFIG_USB_MOUSE Remember most distro's have USB stuff compiled as modules, you may need to make sure you module is getting loaded. The motto is; If it works in Redhats distro kernel then it WILL work in your own compiled kernel "providing" you configure accordingly. On another note, most all USB mouse from logitec will work in a PS/2 port, simply obtain a plug with usb in PS/2 out, plug into your PS/2 mouse port and away you go, BUT then again you would need a kernel with PS/2 support. Under Mice in the configuration file /usr/src/linux/.config you would need; CONFIG_MOUSE=m CONFIG_PSMOUSE=y Not much help i know, but considering noone else replyed i thought i would mention it. -- If the Linux community is a bunch of theives because they try to imitate windows programs, then the Windows community is built on organized crime.
