Hi Norman, I just tested make menuconfig/xconfig/gconfig and got the same results from all 3 of them. | In the .config generated by make xconfig, the following lines exist: | | # | # USB Human Interface Devices (HID) | # | CONFIG_USB_HID=m | CONFIG_USB_HIDINPUT=y | # CONFIG_HID_FF is not set | # CONFIG_USB_HIDDEV is not set | | # | # USB HID Boot Protocol drivers | # | # CONFIG_USB_KBD is not set | # CONFIG_USB_MOUSE is not set | # CONFIG_USB_AIPTEK is not set | # CONFIG_USB_WACOM is not set | [...] USB_KBD and USB_MOUSE show up here (above) because USB_HID=m. Somehow it got changed to USB_HID=y in the config file below, and that changes the rules for some of the items under it. | OK, aside from making me wonder what HIDDEV refers to and why it isn't set, | and making it rather non-obvious which drivers are HID Boot Protocol and | which aren't, the settings look pretty reasonable to me. | | In the .config generated by make gconfig, the following lines exist: | | # | # USB Human Interface Devices (HID) | # | CONFIG_USB_HID=y | CONFIG_USB_HIDINPUT=y | # CONFIG_HID_FF is not set | CONFIG_USB_HIDDEV=y | # CONFIG_USB_AIPTEK is not set | # CONFIG_USB_WACOM is not set | [...] | | With this file in a text editor, searching for string USB_KBD results in the | string not being found. I think that Roman Zippel already replied to this, but you won't find USB_KBD there because USB_HID=y and they are mutually exclusive. In summary, I checked again and still don't see a problem. -- ~Randy
