Make sure you get hid and mousedev loaded with the -pre4, because 2.4.18-19 has autoload code which Vojtech rejected. If the thing refuses to work with all modules loaded, you can help by doing a patch bisection from the 2.4.18-19 SRPM and post results to the list. Actually, just try taking out everything that has *usb* or *input* in the patch name. -- Pete
