Specs:
Version: BLFS-SVN
Kernel: 2.6.12.5
Mouse: Logitech Marble Mouse (Big Red Marble, 2 large mouse buttons, 2 smaller mouse buttons)

I rebuilt the kernel (I followed the LFS instructions) because I was trying to get sound to work int this build (separate issue, another time). Anyway I had botched that whole thing, and mistakenly deleted both the config-2.6.12.5 and the lfskernel-2.6.12.5 files forcing me to do a complete rebuild of the kernel from scratch.

After rebuilding the kernel, I lost use of my mouse. Actually, the little box pointer does appear and I can move it with the trackball, but then it automatically start to copy/paste without me clicking the mouse buttons. The screen also flashes multi-colors and then I get this message:

psmouse.c: Explorer Mouse at isa0060/seri1/input0 lost sychronization, throwing 2 bytes away

What I have done so far to try to fix this (none of it worked):
Recompiled the kernel 4 times choosing different combinations of mouse support
Recompiled gpm per the BLFS instructions (only once)

I don't know how I messed this up, and I don't know how to fix it. I am looking at my host distro config file now, but if someone here could help me out, I would appreciate it.

Thanks,
