compile linux 2.6.0-test9 question


I have compiled linux 2.6.0-test9 kernel on Red Hat Linux 9. When I restarted my computer, it displayed:

Mounting USB file system: [OK]
grep: /proc/bus/usb/drivers: No such file or directoy.
Initializing USB HID interface: [OK]
Initializing USB keyboard: FATAL: Module keybdev not found [Failed]
Initializing USB mouse: FATAL: Module mousedev not found. [Failed]

How can I slove this problem?

BTW, I use PS/2 mouse and keyboard, not USB.

Obviously it wasn't compiled correctly. I think it took me 6 or 7 tries before I got my first kernel working correctly.

I sloved this problem by myself. I comment out the following line in /etc/rc.sysinit:

LC_ALL=C grep 'hid' /proc/bus/usb/drivers || action $"Initializing USB HID interface: " modprobe hid 2> /dev/null
action $"Initializing USB keyboard: " modprobe keybdev 2> /dev/null
action $"Initializing USB mouse: " modprobe mousedev 2> /dev/null

Then the annoying message dispeared forever.

well, what you've done to your /etc/rc.sysinit is just only a workaround, you have to recompile the kernel and compile these 2 modules as standalone modules

But when I ran "make gconfig", I can't find these two modules mousedev and keybdev. Who can tell me where they are?
