[ale] USB is killing me

I've just upgraded my laptop kernel from RH 2.4.20-20.9 to
2.4.22.  Here is what I do to upgrade

1) download 2.4.22.tar.bz2
2) un tar
3) cd linux-2.4.22
4) make menuconfig
5) cp ../linux-2.4.20-20.9/.config .
6) make menuconfig
7) make dep && \ 
   make bzImage && make modules && \
   make modules_install

8) cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/kerne-2.4.22
9) update /boot/menu.1st

My USB mouse will work under the old kernel and 
not the new.  I can not figure out what I've done wrong.
All the same modules are present just the new version.
you'll see from the lsmod output that they are not the same.


lsmod from 2.4.20-20.9 
Module                  Size  Used by    Not tainted
hid                    22244   0  (unused)
input                   5856   0  [keybdev mousedev hid]
usb-uhci               26412   0  (unused)
usbcore                79040   1  [hid usb-uhci]

lsmod from 2.4.22
Module                  Size  Used by    Not tainted
hid                    12440   0  (unused)
keybdev                 2944   0  (unused)
input                   5760   0  [mousedev keybdev]
usb-uhci               26380   0  (unused)
usbcore                78080   1  [hid usb-uhci]

What did I do wrong?


Thanks,
Chris
