Just one question - why is psmouse under isapnp? Is it really coming over an ISA bus somehow? Do you even have an ISA bus on that machine? I have a machine that has one, but it must be 8 or 10 years old. > At boot I get errors that none of these could be loaded. Can you post them?

Yeah - my understanding is that /etc/modprobe.conf is for local additions, and so it's either empty or missing. man 5 modprobe.conf has some details, although it looks like there is some erroneous information in it (i.e., it mentions the absent program generate_modprobe.conf).
