    I'm having no luck in getting a USB Mouse to work...

    /etc/fstab reports:

    none /proc/bus/usb usbfs defaults 0 0

    On boot up into a Knoppix 2.4.20-xfs kernel I always
    get...

    usb.c: registered new driver usbdevfs
    usb.c: registered new driver hub
    usb-uhci.c: $Revision: 1.275 $ time 18:50:40 Nov 15
    2003
    usb-uhci.c: High bandwidth mode enabled
    usb-uhci.c: USB UHCI at I/O 0xfce0, IRQ 9
    usb-uhci.c: Detected 2 ports
    usb.c: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 1
    hub.c: USB hub found
    hub.c: 2 ports detected
    usb-uhci.c: v1.275:USB Universal Host Controller
    Interface driver

    with the mouse plugged in when I boot, I additionally
    get...

    usb.c: new USB device 00:07.2-1, assigned address 2
    usb.c: USB device 2 (vend/prod 0x45e/0x39) is not
    claimed by any active driver
    usb.c: registered new driver hiddev
    usb.c: registered new driver hid
    usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 3, frame # 231
    input0: USB HID v1.10 Mouse [ Microsoft Microsoft
    5-Button Mouse with IntelliEye(TM)] on usb1:2.0
    hid-core.c: v1.81.1 Andreas Gal, Vojtech Pavlik
    <vojtech@suse.cz>
    hid-core.c: USB HID support drivers

    lsmod reports the additional modules keybdev, hid,
    mousedev and input in addition to usbcore and usb-uhci
    that are always there.

    As far as I can tell the mouse is recognised (albeit a
    Microsoft mouse borrowed from work...!?), so what more
    do I need to do to get it working?

    Using my 2.4.22 kernel I get a complaint of failed
    attempt to load keybdev, but then, I disabled that in
    my kernel compilation. Why do I need keybdev for a
    mouse anyway?!

    Thanks...
