Hi all :))
I've recently installed a USB mouse, and I want it to run with HIDBP. I have USB and USB_UHCI (and USB_DEVICEFS) built into the kernel and I successfully use my printer thru the USB interface. No problem with that, with a 2.4.18 kernel.
The USB mouse support I have it as a module, as well as the input core support. Well, I do: $ insmod input $ insmod usbmouse
and I have a char device with major 180, minor 16 (first USB mouse, per Documentation/devices.txt). I load the modules by hand because the default 'above' settings for modprobe with this modules want to install keybdev and others.
My system log says:
<30>Apr 2 21:30:32 kernel: usb.c: registered new driver usb_mouse <30>Apr 2 21:30:32 kernel: input0: Logitech USB-PS/2 Trackball on usb1:2.0 <30>Apr 2 21:30:32 kernel: usbmouse.c: v1.6:USB HID Boot Protocol mouse driver
that is, seems to detect the mouse properly, doesn't it?
But when I do 'gpm -m mouse -p -t imps2' I have a 'ENODEV'. Same if I try to open 'mouse' with cat or the like, always ENODEV:
crw-r--r-- 1 root root 180,16 mouse
Is the node correct? I'm doing all this as root, so no permission problems should arise :? and I've tested too 13,32 and 13,63 nodes, too, no one worked :( (same: ENODEV).
I don't want to use the /dev/input/... interface, since this mouse should work with HIDBP. Must I use any additional module? If so, why the kernel is not telling me anything about unresolved symbols, lack of support, etc...? Must I use another minor?
Thanks in advance :)
