Question USB problems with kernel 2.6

Hi, I'm having trouble with Linux 2.6. I installed arjanv's version (available somewhere on the redhat site) following instructions on the FC1 kernel 2.6 howto on fedoranews.org.

When it tries to load keybdev and mousedev during startup it fails because it can't locate the modules. Nor can I.

modprobe mousedev returns
FATAL: Module mousedev not found.

The only usb-related modules (returned by lsmod) loaded by default are:

ohci1394 (I think this might be firewire anyway)
hid
usbcore

I'd be grateful if someone can help me out.

2.6 changed the module names. mousedev is now called "usbmouse" and keybdev is now "usbkbd".

Thumbs up

Thanks; in fact I managed to fix it eventually anyway. I turned off loading of USB keyboard, mouse and host modules in /etc/rc.sysinit, and instead added "modprobe uhci_hcd". It seems that I don't have to load the keyboard and mouse modules anyway - X works fine without them being modprobed either manually or in /etc/rc.sysinit.
