A mirror of the USB project is at http://www.nv.org/linux/USB/snapshots.html I tried to help a friend compile a new kernel so that his USB mouse would work. We got it to compile without errors. The mouse still doesn't work. The guy working on USB does not write very good english. This is not a criticism, but rather an explaination, of why the instructions were hard to follow. Also, I believe he assumes the person reading the instructions has a good understanding of the linux kernel (which I don't claim to have). If you have any luck getting this to work, please send some help my way. My friend is currently using a serial mouse while his nice shiny new USB mouse collects dust. > > I would also like to know if can mount a fat32 partition. i have tryed mount > -t vfat /dev/hdc1 /mnt ( fat32 is on and 3rd hard drive ) but i get a error > message.
