I upgraded to the 2.6.0-test1 and I had a very annoying issue with USB not working. I ended up tracking it down to a change in the name of the USB1 module. I also had to take settings from /etc/modules.conf to /etc/modprobe.conf This was especially annoying since I use a USB keyboard and USB mouse. I do have USB legacy support turned on in the bios, but the USB keyboard didn't work till I plugged in a PS/2 keyboard. The really funny thing was I would hit numlock on the USB keyboard and it would change the led on the PS/2 keyboard.
On the same topic USB keyboard and mouse support need to be compiled in like PS/2 support. Loading USB modules in rc.sysinit a very poor substitute. Grub also needs native USB support. Currently it only works with USB legacy support turned on in the bios.
Im having the same problem with USB mouse and keyboard. They are both dead on boot with Arjan's 2.6.0 (test 4 now) though all works fine with the 2.4.21.20...nptl kernel. Ran the /sbin/generate-modprobe-conf script and still nothing. Could someone be more specific with the name problem Nathan reports? In 2.6 I show the keyboard and mouse (Input Device Drivers) compiled into the kernel but USB_KBD and USB_MOUSE are not set. So which module needs to be renamed?
