Mine is AMD based. I have this right now but tried every other version |
30 |
I could find too. |

Under USB HID support, I have this enabled: |

|
41 |
<*> USB HID transport layer |
42 |
[*] PID device support |
43 |
[*] /dev/hiddev raw HID device support |

My thinking, there is some driver that is different from my old mobo to |
106 |
this new mobo and I'm missing it or just missing something really |
107 |
simple. I went by the Debian HCL site but maybe something got changed. |
108 |
If I could boot the Sysrescue stick then I could likely figure it out |
109 |
from that. I'm going to update that stick before the next test. |
110 |
|
111 |
Keep in mind, for me to test anything, I have to swap mobos again. |
112 |
Naturally I don't want to do that any more times than I have to. Each |
113 |
times runs the risk of me messing up something. :/ |

Thanks much to all. |
