All-
I'm looking for information on how to debug an issue where periodically the mouse pointer will freeze and become unresponsive. The rest of the system appears fine and I can still use keyboard shortcuts to switch workspaces, close windows, and get to the point where I can reboot the system. I'm running hipster, last updated about 3 weeks ago, but this problem has been happening for a couple years, going all the way back to oi151a9. Hardware is a Dell Precision T3600 desktop, Nvidia GPU. I've tried a couple of different mice -- both Dell USB mice, but much different models. The current mouse is a low-end Dell USB with 2 buttons + the middle scroll-wheel that also acts as a button. When the problem happened earlier today, after rebooting I found this in Xorg.0.log.old: [1140791.839] mouse: Device no longer present - removing. [1140791.855] (WW) mouse: cannot pop module 'usbms' off mouse device: No such device [1140791.855] (WW) mouse: cannot pop module 'usbms' off mouse device: No such device [1140791.855] (II) UnloadModule: "mouse" This is what that same Xorg.0.log.old had to say when the mouse was originally detected & configured at the previous boot-up: [ 66.479] (II) NVIDIA(0): [DRI2] Setup complete [ 66.479] (II) NVIDIA(0): [DRI2] VDPAU driver: nvidia [ 66.479] (--) RandR disabled [ 66.518] (II) Initializing extension GLX [ 66.518] (II) Indirect GLX disabled.(II) config/hal: Adding input device mouse [ 67.267] (II) LoadModule: "mouse" [ 67.267] (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/amd64/mouse_drv.so [ 67.285] (II) Module mouse: vendor="X.Org Foundation" [ 67.285] compiled for 1.18.4, module version = 1.9.2 [ 67.285] Module class: X.Org XInput Driver [ 67.285] ABI class: X.Org XInput driver, version 22.1 [ 67.285] (II) Using input driver 'mouse' for 'mouse' [ 67.285] (**) mouse: always reports core events [ 67.285] (**) Option "Protocol" "VUID" [ 67.285] (**) Option "Device" "/dev/usb/hid0" [ 67.285] (**) Option "StreamsModule" "usbms" [ 67.286] (**) mouse: Protocol: "VUID" [ 67.286] (**) mouse: always reports core events [ 67.286] (==) mouse: Emulate3Buttons, Emulate3Timeout: 50 [ 67.286] (**) mouse: ZAxisMapping: buttons 4 and 5 [ 67.286] (**) mouse: Buttons: 9 [ 67.286] (**) Option "config_info" "hal:/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pci_0_0/pci1028_497_1d/hub_1/mouse_5_if0_10_logicaldev_input" [ 67.286] (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "mouse" (type: MOUSE, id 6) [ 67.286] (**) mouse: (accel) keeping acceleration scheme 1 [ 67.286] (**) mouse: (accel) acceleration profile 0 [ 67.286] (**) mouse: (accel) acceleration factor: 2.000 [ 67.286] (**) mouse: (accel) acceleration threshold: 4 [ 67.291] (II) config/hal: Adding input device mouse [ 67.291] (II) Using input driver 'mouse' for 'mouse' [ 67.291] (**) mouse: always reports core events [ 67.292] (**) Option "Protocol" "VUID" [ 67.292] (**) Option "Device" "/dev/usb/hid2" [ 67.292] (**) Option "StreamsModule" "usbms" [ 67.292] (**) mouse: Protocol: "VUID" [ 67.292] (**) mouse: always reports core events [ 67.292] (==) mouse: Emulate3Buttons, Emulate3Timeout: 50 [ 67.292] (**) mouse: ZAxisMapping: buttons 4 and 5 [ 67.292] (**) mouse: Buttons: 9 [ 67.292] (**) Option "config_info" "hal:/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pci_0_0/pci1028_497_1a/hub_1/device_4/mouse_1_if1_12_logicaldev_input" [ 67.292] (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "mouse" (type: MOUSE, id 7) [ 67.292] (**) mouse: (accel) keeping acceleration scheme 1 [ 67.293] (**) mouse: (accel) acceleration profile 0 [ 67.293] (**) mouse: (accel) acceleration factor: 2.000 [ 67.293] (**) mouse: (accel) acceleration threshold: 4 Log messages after that are for hotkey/kbd. Most of the hits I've found on the net have related to laptops and USB devices that are being powered down to save power, but this is a workstation that is always on power. Any suggestions for what I should do to debug the issue?
