Hi,
I think it's talking about the syntex your
using...dude... you need to look up how to run command
from teh kernel line.
I think your line in grub.conf =
usbhid.=0quirksx15c2:0x0036:0x4
is the whole problem.
Verify quirks is installed, config-ed, etc.. and make
sure your using that command correctly...
That will probably fix it.
