Subject: test9 - USB and fat32 not working

I have an i686 with RH9 and i installed Red Hat unofficial rpm's
(kernel-2.6.0-0.test9.1.70.i686.rpm , etc..)

Everything is working fine expect for this boot messages (I'll try to
remember):

USB not working - missing
usb_uhci
mousedev
keybdev

Also i can't mount my fat32 partitions. (I have no problem with RH9 kernel,
fstab is ok)

Finally, mouse movement is way too accelerated.

I noticed that this only happen under X. On text mode movement are fine.

My cdroms disapeared too.

As you said i send you the output of dmesg and fstab with kernel 2.4 and 2.6.

(iii) Normally, only the superuser can mount file systems.
However, when fstab contains the "user" option on a line,
anybody can mount the corresponding system.

Thus, given a line
/dev/cdrom /cd iso9660 ro,user,noauto,unhide
any user can mount the iso9660 file system found on his
CDROM using the command
mount /dev/cdrom
or
mount /cd
... The owner option is similar to the
user option, with the restriction that the user must be
the owner of the special file. This may be useful e.g. for
/dev/fd if a login script makes the console user owner of
this device.

That is: the syntax is "owner", not "owner=...".
Also, this is an option handled by mount, so kernel version
should play no role.

However, 2.6 does more strict option checking, and complains
about unknown options, while 2.4 in many places just ignores them.
