USB devices must be reconnected to actually work

Hey I'm running the latest slacko arcade puppy linux. Sometimes, I can't tell when or/and why, I have to disconnect the mouse, and reconnect it, to make it work. Same goes for other USB devices, like the gamepads. Does anyone recognize this problem? When I booted up now, the mouse worked instantly. ...

Damn.. I suspected this.

Tried fiddling with the ppm command with my txz files, but it's not working.

What's the exact command I should run (ppm) to install a txz file? Or do I have to do this within x?

I deleted the "free...text" something, now X won't start

I messed up, I was going to uninstall fluxbox since I didnt use it. I couldnt, because (cant remember name) free..text..something was needed. So I deleted that one.

And, now I can't get x running.

startx jwm
startx fluxbox
startx
xorgwizard

nothing works.

What can I do now?

Well now that I've got networking going, and I've managed to transfer alot of roms via ftp, I need to get the gamecontrollers/gamepads working.

Could someone guide me here? Is there a "dmesg" something command to see whats connected to the usb ports?

Please :)

Sc0ttman has not replied, so here is a suggestion. The in-kernel version of the rtl8192cu driver is notoriously bad. So I have attached a better one built from vendor sources. It is specifically for the latest Puppy Arcade - Slacko 593, k3.4.94. Please report back. Thanks, but I can't get it to wor...

sc0ttman, I salute you dude, this product is so appreciated. However, not knowing very much about linux (I know a little more after last night :D ) I spent many many many hours trying to deal with networking.
