This line did occur in dmesg prior to the modprobe, i.e. as part of
the boot-up. It occurs after a similar message for the keyboard (which
works fine); but before the USB stuff loads. I have an 'aiptek
hyperpen' clone graphics tablet (USB) which does work.

Booting my machine _without_ the tablet plugged in prevents this issue. 
This isn't a relevant fix for my work computer, but luckily that one has 
stopped complaining as of late. I will investigate further at a later time.

Right - well indeed when I got in my PS2 mouse wasn't working in X. No
events on /dev/input/mice. psmouse module loaded, '0' modules
depending on it. rmmod psmouse; modprobe psmouse resulted in the
following on dmesg:

This is a 2.6.11 kernel. Any tips/advice would be greatly appreciated.

sarge testing->stable and USB mouse issue

2005-06-09 Thread Jon Dowland
Hi all - it seems a lot of people are having trouble with their mice 
after the sarge move from testing to stable. I am also having a problem 
which seems to be different from those who have already posted on d-u 
and I can't find any relevant bugs against xserver-xfree86.


When I get into work in the morning, my mouse does not appear to be 
working. Sometimes I have an X session open which I was using the 
previous day, mouse and all; other times I am logging in afresh from 
gdm. I cannot find any messages hinting at the cause in /var/log/* or 
dmesg. Removing the mouse and plugging it in again causes the hotplug 
system to register the mouse afresh:


usb 4-1: USB disconnect, address 5
usb 4-2: new low speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 6
input: USB HID v1.10 Mouse [Logitech Optical USB Mouse] on 
usb-:00:1d.3-2


X is configured to use /dev/input/mice. I am using a 2.6.11 kernel.

When I come in tomorrow, assuming my mouse isn't working in the morning, 
I will confirm


a) that the no-mouse-in-X problem is in fact no-events-from-mouse by 
hexdumping /dev/input/m*
b) that there is a mouse entry (still) in the /proc/bus/usb listings 
(since the dmesg output indicates that a disconnect was registered, that 
sort-of suggests to me the mouse is still present as far as the kernel 
is concerned)


[Footnote: I may be having the same problem at home, too (similarly 
sarge 2.6.11, albeit PS2 mouse this time). However I can't  confirm 
that, I haven't used that machine much recently and I think the mouse 
actually was physically unplugged at one point.]
