Doesn't one need usbmouse also? I'm not sure. > However, X cannot open /dev/input/mice with the error "no such device". > I tried `cat /dev/input/mice` and received the same error... but `ls > /dev/input` shows that it is there! "no such device" doesn't mean the device node is missing; it means Linux doesn't know what device it should connect with that node. Please post the output of ls -l /dev/input/mice. Maybe the device file has been damaged. It should display the numbers 13, 63 (major/minor number) in the size column. Try loading usbmouse first, though :-) -- Best Regards, | Hi!
