Description Peter Connolly 2005-08-26 13:33:59 UTC

I upgraded my SuSE 9.3 system to openSUSE 10 B3 using 'System Update'.  On
restart, no keyboard or mouse was detected. Attached a PS2 keyboard and did an
lsmod.  No mention of usbhid, ehci_hid or uhci_hid.  Modprobe'd them in and
mouse and keyboard appeared.
I modified the sysconfig/kernel/modules loaded on boot to include these (ugh!)
but now I can restart and have usb mouse and keyboard working correctly.

Please provide YaST2 logs, see:

y2logs after restart

Yast logs after restarting and manually loading the missing modules.  Can't
reproduce the problem without restoring 9.3 and reinstalling Beta3.

Comment 3 Jiri Srain 2005-08-29 07:13:39 UTC

And, were they present in that sysconfig variable in 9.3? AFAIK, USB modules 
were always loaded by hotplug. Olag?

Comment 4 Olaf Hering 2005-08-29 07:22:32 UTC

did you use the new initrd to boot, or did you boot into the installed system
via yast or linuxrc?

Comment 5 Olaf Hering 2005-08-29 08:08:14 UTC

attach also the hwinfo output, if you havent already done so.

hwinfo output as requested.

Comment 7 Peter Connolly 2005-08-30 09:31:08 UTC

The usb modules were not present in the sysconfig variable in 9.3.  I think I 
might have found something relevant.  After the update and restart, the outut of
uname -a was "2.6.11.4-21.8-default #1 Tue Jul 19 12:42:37 UTC 2005 i686 i686
i386 GNU/Linux".  The installed kernel wsa still the 9.3 version, held back due
to dependencies on the 9.3 non-gpl kernel modules.  I updated all kernel*
entries to 2.6.13_rc6_git13-4 and restarted.  It seemed that the system update
didn't correctly handle the non gpl modules, causing the problem.

I now have a working system with no requirement to add the usb modules to the
/etc/sysconfig/kernel file.

Comment 8 Hannes Reinecke 2005-09-05 12:30:56 UTC

Seems to be an update problem.
Reassigning to the YaST folks.

Comment 9 Lukas Ocilka 2005-09-05 14:12:26 UTC

jsrain: please have a look at it again... could it be a kernel bug ;)?

Comment 10 Jiri Srain 2005-09-05 14:28:33 UTC

No, it sounds like a bug inside package manager (which evaluates packages to  
update). Michael, can you learn why kernel-default-nongpl was removed instead 
of updating?

Comment 11 Peter Connolly 2005-09-21 09:12:13 UTC

Unable to reproduce with B4 or RC1.  I think we can close this due an 
inability to make it go wrong again. Thanks guys.
