I would agree with -=Graz=- for the need to have UHCI modules loaded.

mr.anderson, did yuo check if you have the UHCI modules loaded ?

OK - here's a bunch of responses...

AH - rc.gpm was already executable so chmod -x was benign. I agree with you - for now I have abandoned plugging the mouse into the keyboard and am using a native USB port first.

GRAZ - unplugging/pluggin in mouse and tail f /var/log/messges gave the following:
Apr 25 21:42:44 mr kernel: usb.c: USB disconnect on device 00:1d.0-1.1 address 19
Apr 25 21:43:08 mr kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:1d.0-2, assigned address 20
Apr 25 21:43:08 mr kernel: input: USB HID v1.10 Mouse [Logitech Optical USB Mouse] on usb2:20.0

Yes, my mouse is a logitech optical usb. Obviously, did not get any of the CREATE lines that you show.


I may not have UHCI support, but not sure. here is output of my lsmod.

tried the -t imps2 flag for gpm. Struck out as well.

Also tried
cd /dev/input
xxd event0 through xxd event 10

none of them gave me the numbers scrolling around the screen.

Thanks to everyone for the help. At this point, I'm reduced to just making the usb mouse work when plugged into a native port (forget the USB hub in the keyboard).

Pretty disappointed because it seems like a common enough hardware configuration. Anyways, any other comments are always welcome and appreciated. In the meantime, I'll keep reading.
