"no data from device" -that made me think that maybe the mouse wasn't getting -enough- power, and so not generating any information. Which might point to corroded contacts? If you folks really think this should be working, maybe either buying a brand-new adapter might solve the problem. Of course, if the problem is the mouse, well, I'm not sure anybody is selling brand-new ball-mice anymore -_- ;-)

I didn't, because it would never have occurred to me that there was any point in doing such a thing. I can tell you that I have now tried the tests you suggest, and the results are not all the same. The ordinary mouse/keyboard thing that I plug in always works fine. The adapter without the mouse usually prints the first error, but not always the last, and not always the first 5 times. And sometimes more than 5. That was unexpected. When it's plugged in with the mouse, I'm tempted to say it fails completely more often. I have tried all the ports, multiple times. I might be convinced that this is a hardware issue, on the part of the mouse and/or adapter, but it works perfectly when plugged into the laptop. Hence the questions about current. ------------------------------------------ 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/Td94105a3d5018162-M863064eda56cad228978e49b Delivery options: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/subscription
