Hiya,

As the subject line says my USB mouse isn't getting any joy.

Logitech USB mouse.
Kernel 2.2.99-pre5
Abit BP6 motherboard with 2 x 366mhz celeron's

This is the output from "dmesg" with the relevant section about the mouse.
(So I guess it technically does pick it up)

After boot, there is no /dev/usb section and /proc/usb is a empty directory
; I'm guessing because of the "not recognized" line.

It says pretty much identically the same thing for my HP 5300C scanner. (but
I'll worry about that later).

Any ideas? I'm stuck in windows until I can get my mouse working for X :(
