Hi,
I'm using 2 kernels on my distribution. The "official" one is 2.6.32,
and I'm providing a 2.6.29.6-rt24 for those who want to use RealTime.
But since we upgraded udev to the latest version, some of /dev files are
placed at different locations depending on which kernel is used.
With 2.6.32, everything works fine, but now, when I boot with
2.6.29.6-rt24, I cannot move my mouse unless I symlink /dev/mice to
/dev/input/mice. And it doesn't completely work, because I'm unable to
scroll.
I'm not familiar with udev, so I don't really know why older kernels
don't seem to be able to use udev the same way. I tried with the
development version of the RT kernel, which patches 2.6.31, and all
worked fine.
Can you give me some clues to make my system be able to boot right with
my RT kernel?
Thanks in advance,
Aymeric.
