USB keyboard and mouse
Greetings! I am aware that there is a Hardware Compatibility database, but I was wondering from you guys... I'm looking to purchase a Microsoft Internet Pro Keyboard (USB) and a Microsoft Optical Mouse, and was wondering if I could expect their use to be normal with my Red Hat 7.3 OS. And was wondering how you guys have made out with this common equipment. I guess one thing that may be a benefit is that the newer motherboards are able to recognize a USB keyboard/mouse upon boot so that one can get into the BIOS. But that's beside my point/question. Thanks for your info... Tim ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Re: USB keyboard and mouse
Tim - I'm running an Apple Pro USB keyboard and a wireless logitech usb mouse without any problems on redhat 7.2 and 7.3, and you shouldn't have probs with your hardware Shout if you have any other questions! :) Dan Timothy Lee Young wrote: Greetings!

Re: USB keyboard and mouse
USB keyboards and mice work fine, but you have to make sure you have support for HID, USB keyboards, and USB mice loaded. If you still use kudzu, it should load the needed modules by itself. If you want my honest opinion.. buy Logitech and not Microsoft.. that is if it's available where you live :) It'll save you lots of money. On Wed, 22 May 2002, Timothy Lee Young wrote: Greetings!

RE: USB keyboard and mouse
I have these particular Items in question and they don't work very well on my Redhat system. I am still currently on 7.2 I keep an extra ps2 kyb and mouse around for the occasions that the other ones get screwy. it seems to be random as to when they work or don't work, but when they decide to stop working then they ususually won't work for about a week then if I plug them up they will work fine for a couple of weeks then die. Don't know what causes it or why it does this. Have bothered to really investigate the issue. I have really been using the ps2 kyb and mouse because I hate having to switch. they work fine and do what I need anyway. I put the others back on the Windoz box and let the wife and kids use them. don't let my bad experience keep you from getting them if you want them. Also I am using RH 7.2 still. -Original Message- From: Statux [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, May 22, 2002 12:59 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: USB keyboard and mouse USB keyboards and mice work fine, but you have to make sure you have support for HID, USB keyboards, and USB mice loaded.

RE: USB keyboard and mouse
I have a Logitech USB optical wheel mouse. Been using it for a year or two with no problems.

Re: USB keyboard and mouse
Well I didn't hear anything about this issue when I asked, but let me tell you that I fixed it. I commented the usb-controller usb-uhci command from the file /etc/modules.conf; why?, because I was noticed the keyboard worked at the beginning (boot, keep presing the CAPS key and see the light turn on and turn off), but when the usb-uhci module was loades the keyboard stop working. I have no experience with a USB mouse, but I'm on the way to buy an optical mouse. BTW, my Internet keyboard (USB) and Mouse (PS/2) are Logitech.
