Hi All,
I've got it to a stage where I get the KDM login screen with full mouse 
& keyboard functionality.
After I login, the mouse & keyboard drops out before the desktop appears.
Using ssh I get into the system and check Xorg.0.log, to find that the 
'EE' error points to: (EE) PreInit returned 8 for "Logitech USB Receiver"

I can include the dmesg, Xorg.0.log and xorg.conf files if anyone would 
like.

BTW: In ubuntu 6.06 (2.6.15-29) with gdm, I used to have pci=nommconf  
and vmalloc=256M   in the bootstring - I'm using default bootstrings for 
this install. Is this a problem?

TIA,
Zoltan
