Re: Kernel 2.6.12-1-686



Here is what is weird:

# ll   /lib/modules/2.6.12.3-1-686/kernel/drivers/input/mouse
total 84

NOTICE THE 2.6.12.3-1-686
^ ^
Now when I type:
modprobe  /lib/modules/2.6.12.3-1-686/kernel/drivers/input/mouse/psmouse.ko
^ ^
CHECK THIS OUT the modprobe response is
FATAL: Module /lib/modules/2.6.12.3_1_686/kernel/drivers/input/mouse/psmouse.ko not found ^ ^ EXPLAIN THIS ?

Edit your .config and look for the psmouse module location. Acording
yours specifications the 2.6.11 path is wrong, you need specify to the
system that the modules used by 2.6.12 are in /lib/modules/2.6.12

I don't know if this iwill work, but you can laod the module by the
full path, for testing:
modprobe  /lib/modules/2.6.12.3-1-686/kernel/drivers/input/mouse.ko or
something else...

created with make modules_install after kernel build.

I agree it is strange not quite shure what is wrong but still looking.

Look at this:

Your kernel is 2.6.12, right? 2.6.11-1-686 looks like your old release...
The psmouse is modular or is builtin with your 2.6.12 kernel?
Something is wrong, very worng and strange...

If you have the psmouse module in
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/input/mouse/psmouse.ko

Edit your .config of 2.6.12 and modify the path to the correct location.

You really have the module? See in /lib/modules/`uname
-r`/kernel/drivers for the psmouse or simply try an modinfo psmouse to
see details about this module.

Other thing that you can do is compare the lsmod outputs (the .config
files are equal, then the loaded modules will be too...) in both
kernels.

The /dev/psaux exists in /dev ? If no you can create with MAKEDEV script...

Already tried that no luck !

Thanks anyway

Try load the psmouse module:
#modprobe psmouse

Then your mouse device is connected to /dev/psaux.

Problem getting ps2 mouse to work.

I used the ,config file from my 2.6.11 kernel configuration which works
just fine, however I cannot seem to enable the ps2 mouse?

Looking at the .config file all the necessary drivers are either modules
or built in to the kernel. I have tried different variations but no luck
with the mouse. I am using the same computer and hardware to boot both
kernels.

Any suggestions?
