Ok I decided to "rip out it's guts" and try again to be sure it wasn't something unseen causing my troubles. Here's what I have done s ofar...
Got rid of kernel 2.4.16+LPP patch and replaced it with 2.4.18 - recompiled made sure I compiled in the ps2 mouse driver. Downloaded pgui-latest snapshot (someday I'll convince the guys in the NOC to open the firewall for CVS access) and recompiled pgserver with default settings except for only having the framebuffer driver and disabling any SDL input drivers, and enabling event debugging. verified that my mouse is working with gpm... yes it's fine. tried pgserver with Micah's last suggestion.. nothing... mouse is still dead, no movement. debugging info? nothing... I am either missing something important or obvious. any more ideas? thanks. -----Original Message----- From: Micah Dowty [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, May 22, 2002 2:21 PM To: Gray, Tim Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Pgui-devel] pgserver ps2 mouse support driver It should log to stdout On Wed, May 22, 2002 at 12:16:04PM -0600, Gray, Tim wrote: > I tried that, still no mose control.
