Hello,

after trying the 2.4.19-pre10-ac2 and 2.4.19-rc1 and 2.4.19-gentoo-r7 and also 2.4.19-gentoo-r5,no HID device works !!
(for me it seems, all of them are "derivates" of -ac-Patches, or not ?)

There are only /dev/usb/hid/hidraw0 to hidraw2 and no /dev/input/mouse0

Also it seems thate the kernelmessages says:
"hiddev0: Logitech USB Mouse on usb1:4.0"
with 2.4.18 or 2.4-19-xx disabled HID and using HIDBP's (basic) it shows:
"input2: Logitech USB Mouse on usb1:4.0".

Here's part of my config (all other aren't set):
#
# USB support
#
CONFIG_USB=y
CONFIG_USB_DEVICEFS=y
CONFIG_USB_LONG_TIMEOUT=y

CONFIG_USB_OHCI=y

CONFIG_USB_PRINTER=y
CONFIG_USB_HID=y
# CONFIG_USB_HIDINPUT is not set
CONFIG_USB_HIDDEV=y
CONFIG_USB_SCANNER=m

well i had the gentoo-r7 loaded adn had my razer usb mouse working fine...so if it worked for me it is probably something other then the actual kernel at fault.

could you mail me your .config - so i could look, where are the differences.

but one indice for a kernel bug is, that only on the 2.4.19-series the problem is - even the 2.4.24(-dj2) works fine.

# CONFIG_USB_HIDINPUT is not set

Sorry, but this was the cause:

CONFIG_USB_HIDINPUT
*must* be set.

Sorry - my mistake.
