Hi all, Here is a very critical problem. I had a running Xwindow . *mdetect -x* displayed /dev/psaux ImPS/2
I also have the same configuration in my /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 2 days ago I installed *xdebconfigurator* in my debian sarge (testing) to test the automatic building of a XF86Config-4. But *xdebconfigurator* couldn't work properly. Anyhow after that whenever I try to fire-up *startx* it shows *input core pointer device missing* , hence I can't get graphics any more. more over *mdetect* couldn't detect the mouse any more. I have then investigated the /etc/modprobed.d/aliases and found there a line as alias char-major-10-1 psmouse doing *modprobe psmouse* loads psmouse module and I have no problem to start Xwindow and mdetect also detects as before -:) ( but *insmod psmouse* shows no such file) So I have edited the /etc/modutils/aliases to add two lines as alias char-major-10-1 psmouse alias /dev/psaux psmouse then I did *update-modules.modutils* to update /etc/modules.conf But after rebooting the machine it doesn't load the module psmouse though the /etc/modules.conf reflects the modification I have done. So I have to manually load it with modprobe every time. Could any one kindly suggest me what to do to get back the auto loading of psmouse as before ?? PS: I can use /etc/modules. but it is not the default position and I am looking for the default position which was used to activate PS/2 before cracking by *xdebconfigurator*. debian users could you kindly investigate your /etc/modules.conf and /etc/modutils for PS/2 mouse modules ?? thanks, J.
