USB in linux question
I am trying to use an external optical USB mouse on my laptop with redhat 7.3 but it is not working. When I type insmod usb-uhci the mouse laser flashes and then shuts off. Is there some step that I am missing?
Got root?

I found this from http://www.linux-usb.org:
I tried that but it still does that same thingQ: How do I make USB work on my Sony Vaio laptop? A:You may need to turn off the BIOS option for Plug-n-Play operating system support on some models of Vaio. Then USB should work fine, although you may have problems with using the modem. This is only needed on some models. This solution also worked on the Gateway 2000 Solo 5150 notebook.Got root?

Try this,
su to root and open /etc/modules.conf in an editor and add this line: alias mouse usbmouse Save and reboot.

You need to load much more drivers than just the USB _controller_ driver. How about the USB _device_ hot plug services and driver stack?

mousedev, hid, input, ... but if you have the USB services running properly, they'd be autoloaded upon detection of a mouse.
