Description:

my MS mouse does not work without usbmouse driver.

Please change
# CONFIG_USB_KBD is not set
# CONFIG_USB_MOUSE is not set
to
CONFIG_USB_KBD=m
CONFIG_USB_MOUSE=m
in kernel config for next package build.

It is not too hard and I think these drivers will be useful not only for me.

Doesn't this mouse work with the usbhid driver? usbmouse is the basic USB driver for mice without any additional features like 3 mouse buttons and scroll wheels.

Hm, usbhid works. But with usbmouse middle button and scroll works too

I'm inclined to blame your X config there, or some other conflict. At any rate, usbmouse and usbkbd cause conflicts with usbhid, and will almost certainly cause confusion for users if both end up loaded - possibly more trouble than it's worth, for two limited-function drivers which are fully covered by usbhid anyway.

So bad, my scroll wheel mouse can't work with usbhid

hi Glenn, the reason is that I forgot to insert ohci_hcd module for kernel. Sorry to all.
Comment by Jick Nan (jicknan) - Monday, 11 August 2008, 08:28 GMT
My archbox only insert "echi_hcd" module at start up, strange.
