this is a problem I've seen a lot of people having in other forums too.
I tried installing 2.6.0 (currently I have Mandrake 9.2 (kernel 2.4.22)) and after reboot I get some error messages saying my /etc/fstab needs to be changed since my cdrom is no longer called /dev/scd0, it's now called /dev/hdc... After all these file system messages are done, I'm in KDE but with no mouse support. I have a USB optical mouse. It could be my config options but I'm sure I enable all USB stuff in there. Could I be missing an option there?
Are other people having this same problem?
Also, I notice that I don't have network either... don't know why but it could be some missing option during config too.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
