Rosemary, I have not kept up on this thread, but, did you check "enable
acpi" on boot up in lilo. If not give it a try, all of my usb devices
worked after I enabled acpi. HTH
How do I go about that? I've used mc to look at lilo.conf, is that the
one? There are a couple of entries that have acpi in them, but nothing
which obviously (to me) says enable, or not.
Thanks
I know you are trying to get a handle on the cli thing, but I am not
to well versed in it. I would use mcc and boot then "set up how the
system boots" and put an x in "enable acpi" box. In lilo it should
show as something like acpi=yes or similar. HTH
After my last message I went to MCC and checked the "enable acpi box".
Tried the reader in every usb port, and looked at usbview, still
nothing. Tried lsusb, just to be absolutely sure - still nothing. <sigh>
it's a bit like a multi-session group psychotherapy
with everybody grouped around the USB subsystem of your computer ;-)
you did reboot after enabling acpi, right :?)
and your USB mouse does not work then either ?
(i have 2 mice, one ps2 and one USB, both working
simultaneously using LE2005; nice for teamwork).
kind regards philippe
