    |
    | Could I ask anyone with a USB Zip drive and a ps2 mouse to try
    | to confirm this bizarre bug for me?
    |
    | To reproduce it should be simple:
    |
    | 1) Compile USB support as modular, *not* compiled in.
    |
    | 2) The USB Zip drive *must* be plugged in during boot.
    | This bug won't show if you plug in the drive later.
    |
    | 3) Reboot and see if your ps2 mouse works.

    Hi,

    I'm not seeing a problem with this. I'm using 2.6.4-rc1.

    However, you didn't mention what modules were being loaded
    automatically, so we could have a difference in that area.
    If you care to specify a module list, I can test it again.

    And is your USB Zip drive on a UHCI or OHCI controller?
    I have both, so I can test it either way.
