Hi all, Have Installed Redhat 4, but are having two anoying problems.... 1) I have a PS/2 mouse connector on my motherboard, which I do no use. I actually use a Logitech mouseman. Anyway, when I boot up the Kernel, it detects the mouseport as an ATI bus mouse. I compiled my kernel making sure the section on bus mice was NOT selected. On my next reboot, it still detected it. Why??? I cannot get my mouse to work in gpm or X (it worked fine in 3.0.3). I have tried using both serialports to no avial. 2) When I do a shutdown using either CTRL-ALT-DEL or the shutdown command, the computer goes through all the usual stuff killing off everything, but when the machine should reboot it just hangs. I have to Hit the reset button, and then Ioose all by bios settings. I have a PNP bios with an Intel 150Mhz Pentium. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

When I run the shutdown command everything is killed nicely until the part when the filesystems are supposed to be unmounted. I get a system trap and an immediate reboot. When I reboot Linux, I consistently see that it has to repair the file system and put it in a 'clean' state. It's really annoying. I have mailed Red Hat support a week ago and I have yet to hear from them. -- ------------------------------------ Martin Imrisek *Linux: Not just for penguins anymore

Have you installed the upgrade RPMs that fix various problems? Search the RedHat Web site for "errata colgate" and see if your problem is described there.
