hi

I got a hp pavillion dv1000 series laptop and it's loaded with Redhat

I am unable to get the usb support working on it.

I checked out the lsmod and it shows the uhci and ohci drivers inserted.

I however donot see any hid driver or usbcore module. I did a slocate on my system but didnot find them either. I definitely chose to have these supports when compiling my 2.6.22.6 kernel.

What am I doing wrong ?

1. Insert your USB device 2. do a cat /var/log/messages 3. Do you see any new entries regarding the USB device that you inserted?
