The best way to debug this sort of thing is to put
[ws001]
RUNLEVEL = 3
X_MOUSE_PROTOCOL = "Auto"
# X_MOUSE_DEVICE = "/dev/psaux"
# X_MOUSE_DEVICE = "/dev/input/mice"
in lts.conf. This will stop the terminal's boot process about nine
tenths of the way through, just before the various programs that
normally run (printer servers and X) are started. It also tells the
terminal to set up the mouse with the defaults. Later, we may try each
of the two DEVICE lines, but for now leave them commented out.
This is easiest if you have two terminals, one that's working properly.
You will need to make changes to /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf, reboot
ws001, test it, and repeat until the terminal's mouse is working.
Boot ws001.
First, let's make sure that /dev is OK.
At the prompt, run 'ls -l /dev/psaux'; it should be a link to
/dev/misc/psaux, which should be a character device with major 10, minor
1 ('crw-r----- 1 0 0 10, 1 psaux'). If /dev/psaux doesn't exist, then
most likely you need to load a kernel module (not sure which, just yet).
Look at /tmp/XF86Config, in particular at the part that starts
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
This section describes your mouse.
Run /tmp/start_ws. Don't log in yet. If the mouse doesn't work, use
the other terminal to uncomment one of the X_MOUSE_DEVICE lines in
lts.conf. Reboot ws001 and run /tmp/start_ws. If the mouse doesn't
work, use the other terminal to comment out that line and uncomment the
other line. Reboot ws001 and run /tmp/start_ws. If the mouse still
isn't working, let us know.
