Dear All

I bought a new usb mouse last week end and installed it to my already working system .

But after some kernel (2.4.20-win4lin) modifications ( to support the usb mouse ) I get some problem with my X .

But before please help me to get my usb mouse working .

First I did follow the Desktop guide .

On my etc/modules.autoload

I load the folowing module
Code:

usb-uhci
hid
usbmouse

The lsmod command shows :
Code:

usbmouse     (unused)
hid               (unused)
usb-uhci       (unused)

it seems to be ok no ?

So I went to /dev/input

and find any mouse0 file !!!

I checked for an other file related to usbmouse , but there are no one in /dev !! :?

What do I have to check more ??

thanks
