Re: Still more Redhat Module Troubles

[John Shillinglaw (linuxtech@knology.net)]

Thanks again,

My only real problem now seems to be that while X loads like it's
supposed to, my mouse ( generic ps/2 wheel mouse ) doesn't move once X
has started.

Only other problems were a message about keybdev being not found which I
understand is normal, and a usb-ohci not found error which hopefully I
found the missing config setting for.

If I can just figure out why the mouse doesn't work, I'll be running on
2.5.69

Thanks again
