Re: USB driver not detecting mouse? (lots of detail)

[David Hay <hay_dave@yahoo.com>]

I got the 2.3 USB code from cvs.on.openprojects.net.  I had to update it a
bit to include the 2.2 spinlock.h since it seems to have moved in the 2.3
kernel.  If I think of it, I'll try to make some patches once I get home...

Where are these patches you speak of?  From reading the docs in the USB
driver, these patches have made it into the USB tree...or are there non-USB
patches that need to be applied?
