I am loading (insmod) what I call usb-card-driver which in a makefile I

includes the following.  ohci.o usb.o ohci-debug.o usb-debug.o

I then load mouse.o on top of that.  I just noticed that I compiled the
hub.c
but I did not load it and the mouse is working.  But I have a 2-port card
which is just a root hub and I think hub.c is just for the extention hubs
only.
AFAIK
I belive this is correct.  I've been loading usbcore.o, usb-ohci.o and the
mouse.o.  Well, I usually don't load mouse, because when I load usb-ohci, it
only sees a single hub with no devices attached, so when mouse.o hits
usb_register, it can't find a mouse device to register the driver with. :(
This is all from samba, yes?  Or sticking the 2.3.x usb into 2.2.x.  I've
been doing that for a while, and the easiest way it to just compile in
OHCI, mouse, hub & keyboard.

What I did differently to get it to work was just the XF68Config file.  I
read the USB-HOWTO and set it up acording to that.  So I have really
done nothing other than compile the modules and then load them with
insmod.  I have not set up the modules directory and conf.modules yet.
I think I know what I need to do with the XF68Config file to get the mouse
working, but until I can get the driver to see the mouse, I'm going to stick
with my ADB mouse :(
The new config tools for the new X work fine w/ setting up mice (gpm & X)
and for USB keyboards (or ADB & USB combos).
