Hi,

this advice was already provided on the CRUX IRC channel :) I think he may be missing some HID devices too in your kernel configuration.

Roelof, could you please let us know your kernel version and upload your config file somewhere???

Baptiste

My kernel version is 3.4.5 provided by the installation cd. My kernel config can be found here : http://pastebin.ca/2304166

Roelof

you have many hid and usb stuff compiled as module. ensure they are well loaded or at least compile them directly in the kernel.

cheers

Thanks, which hid and usb stuff are we talkimg about. Sorry for so many questions but this is one of the first times I try to compile a kernel myself.
