Hi Hans, I've been checking the archives and found only one issue that has to do with the ubuntu problem and sais to put this line: KERNEL=="event[0-9]*", MODE="0666"
in /etc/udev/rules.d/40-permissions.rules file. The problem is that xubuntu 9.04 (jaunty) doesn't have this file any more and permissions.rules, i think, are given in other archives... i'm looking in ubuntu forums to see what can i do... If someone knows something about... I have already tried to create the archive but it didn't work either. thanks again, Diego. --- On Wed, 7/15/09, Hans-Christoph Steiner <[email protected]> wrote: From: Hans-Christoph Steiner <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [PD] HID problem in Xubuntu.

But I don't think that's the issue. I think in recent versions of Ubuntu, the X server or related process grabs the keyboard and mice using exclusive access. You have to tell the X server to not use the mice that you want to use with [hid]. Check the archives, there is quite a bit of discussion about it. It would be great to have a wiki page about this... .hc On Jul 15, 2009, at 12:26 PM, Diego Azar wrote: Hi Simon, Thanks for the fast response. No, it isn't. It's the standard synaptic touchpad that comes with many laptops.
