And the wheel of course -- only graduated to a wheel mouse a few months ago and can't imagine how I managed before. But if I pick up my sons n-button mouse, I always click all sorts of things by mistake. Anyway, good luck with the mouse. BTW, Have you solved the problem of getting a useful, non-US keyboard layout? I have been unable to configure a keyboard that gives éêèç and so forth without losing ' or something else basic. Not to mention the euro sign. Perhaps this should be a new thread... -- richard

I did the following on Toshiba laptop with Logitech Marble Trackball: USB Human Interface (Mouse/Keyboard - 1) ref. http://www.linux-usb.org/USB-guide/x194.html 2) configure kernel for HID in USB section; built in to kernel ensure the following are set: # Input core support CONFIG_INPUT=y CONFIG_INPUT_KEYBDEV=y CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV=y CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_SCREEN_X=1024 CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_SCREEN_Y=768 # USB support CONFIG_USB=y CONFIG_USB_DEVICEFS=y CONFIG_USB_UHCI_ALT=y CONFIG_USB_HID=y CONFIG_USB_HIDINPUT=y 3) load new kernel 4) check that /proc/bus/usb/devices shows plugged in USB devices 5) cat /dev/input/mice ensure that when the mouse is moved there is lots of chars printed to the screen 6) ensure the USB mouse is configured (see XF86Config-4 in appendix) 7) keyboard on USB port should just work 8) mousepad and keyboard on laptop should work simultaneously with the external mouse and keyboard > > Thanks, > Bernard > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Thinkpad 600E and usb mouse
Hello everyone, I have a Logitech MX700 usb mouse attached to my thinkpad but I can't get it to work. I thought that the module usbhid and usbmouse would have been enough but no that doesn't make it work. Do I need a cheese.ko to get it to work or what? Any advise?
