[Oberon] Logitech USB mouse / config string for loading USB drivers

Hi,
 
There's currently an error in the config string that loads the USB drivers. To correctly start the USB software, use the following commands (in order):
 
AosUsbHubDriver.Install; AosUsbEhci.Install; AosUsbUhci.Install; AosUsbOhci.Install; ... USB Device Drivers ...
 
Background: USB device drivers will be loaded/looked for when
1. an HubDriver instance is mapped to a root hub (loading of HC driver, initial bus enumeration)
2. a device is attached to the bus
3. a device driver is added to the USB driver manager (DeviceDriverModule.Install)
 
Currently, there is an error in the config string of the release CD/Aos.Par:
AosDriverDatabase.Enable ~ is executed after the USB system has been started. This leads to the following problem: At the initial bus enumeration, your mouse is recognized but a driver cannot be assign since the Driver Database is not yet enabled. The AosDriverDatabase.Enable ~ command executed later will not force a bus re-enumeration, so the mouse driver will not be loaded automatically. You could:
- use a correct config string (enable driver database before starting the USB system, i.e. before loading the host controller drivers) (1.)
- unplug and then replug your mouse (2.)
- load the mouse driver manually (3.)
 
BTW: 
- I try to add USB related posts on this list to AosUsb.Text. If working with BB USB, be sure to have a look at that file.
- In the release that comes tomorrow (hopefully) I'll fix that issue
 
Regards,
Sven Stauber

Are you working from the AosCD.iso image, or did you install it on HDD or USB-stick?

Did you install from the Image, or from the ZIP-Files?

I've BB installed from the zips to HDD.

When I start from the CD, I can see stijn.skin work OK; but I can't get my Logitech-USB-Mouse to working. Therefor I started with my old BB (current version) and then installed from the zips.
