You may also need the module "mousedev" -- otherwise input doesn't know what kind of input device it is or where to map it.
Where is it not working? gpm? X? Have you created the necessary USB devices in the /dev tree using MAKEDEV? Typically, once all the correct modules are loaded, mice are mapped to /dev/usb/mice. I, too, have a logitech USB optical mouse, and this is where it is mapped. It utilizes the IMPS/2 protocol, so make sure you configuer gpm and/or X with that in mind. If you're still having problems, post back to the list with your config files and a detailed account of what is or isn't happening. -- Matthew Weier O'Phinney [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
