Re: 2.4.2 USB and "mon>" (was Re: All 6 cards!!!)

Hi Stefan,

1. I get a "mon>" prompt on about half of the boots. And on half of
those, typing "x" exits me from mon and continues the boot. The rest
just hang. What is mon anyway? I've already seen reference to this on
the user list, not sure what the solution is...

the kernel has "oopsed" - and dropped you into xmon (debugger).  You can
find out more by doing "?" to list the commands and getting a traceback and
exception report.

This will tell people where the problem lies.

2. No USB mouse response in X. lspci -vv, in part, gives:

I can live with the mon, but not without my mouse. Any suggestions here?

Yes, I was already running input layer on 2.2.18, with no problems.
AFAICT, there are no /dev changes for 2.4.2 if I had already done
them for 2.2.18, no?
