Thanks! I guess the 'wireless' menu item is either not working, or I am using it incorrectly on that site. There is no wireless menu item on the product search page: http://www.usb.org/kcompliance/view The Wireless Products Only Radio button refers to products using the Wireless USB Standard that I assume is supposed to be some kind of blue-tooth killer. (All Retail Categories returns only 117 results) http://www.usb.org/developers/wusb/ If you select the Hi-Speed Products Only option, only one mouse is returned. (I never found serial mice working at only 9600bps unresponsive; barring dirty rollers. Newer mice have higher resolution I guess.) Regards, James Phillips PS: I genuinely did not see the radio buttons when looking for menu items (I did check the drop-down lists). Not sure how proper it is to declare radio buttons not menu items. In my mind, menu items have an immediate effect. I have seen web-pages where choosing a drop-down item affects other drop-down lists in the page. PPS: The choices of effect and affect are intentional. This page agrees with me (Still not sure if I'm correct): http://www.writersblock.ca/tips/monthtip/tipsep99a.htm __ Ask a question on any topic and get answers from real people. Go to Yahoo!

7.2, usb mouse, uhub0: device problem (IOERROR)
Thanks to all who replied. It's working now, apparently spontaneously. It may have started as a connection problem--that's all I can think of. The first time I plugged it in and rebooted, the error occurred. I tried moving it to other ports, but I neglected to reboot--after all, USB is supposed to be hot-pluggable, unlike the PS/2 keyboard, right? At some point, the error messages stopped after a reboot. I can only speculate that there was something in the first USB connector that prevented a good contact, and that it got scraped out after a move or two. Anyone know why the USB/mouse system can't recognize a connection after a reboot, or what administrator action might allow it? Now I have to get the nvidia driver up.

7.2, usb mouse, uhub0: device problem (IOERROR), disabling port 3
Hi, I just put 7.2 on an Asus P5N7A-VM motherboard (running with a Core II Quad 2.33). This motherboard has a PS/2 connector for the keyboard but not for the mouse. When I plug a USB mouse in, or connect a PS/2 mouse through an appropriate green adaptor (PS/2 mouse/USB) I get the following error on the console and in /var/log/messages: Nov 17 15:35:11 silver kernel: uhub0: device problem (IOERROR), disabling port 3 I've tried different USB ports and gotten similar errors. To run an X display I will need (well, very much want) a mouse. Can anyone offer advice on what I must or can do? Thanks, Mark A.

It sound like your mouse may be old enough that it only supports a PS/2 - RS-232 (9 pin serial) adapter. Your board may have a header to allow the easy installation of a serial port, but I have not checked (and serial mice may not be auto-magically configured). Last time I was looking for a mouse, I could not find a PS/2 version. I was reluctant to get a USB mouse because none of them are USB Certified (http://www.usb.org). Many of them also had a Side-scrolling scroll wheel (designed with Vista in mind?) very awkward to use as a middle button. If you mouse IS a USB mouse, try a different one.

It's quite possibly to your credit that you've actually checked whether a USB mouse has been tested as compliant, but when I do a search for Mice/trackballs/pointers, I get 68 results, including a dozen or so from both Logitech and Microsoft.

I can recommend the Sun type 6 USB mouse (standard three button mouse), and maybe the type 7 USB mouse is excellent as well, allthough I can't confirm that because I don't own one (I don't like the mouse wheel). I was looking for a $20 mouse, not a $100 mouse, so that may make a difference in labling/testing. *shrug* A $100 mouse? What is it, made of gold? :-) Maybe the nameless mice are as good as the expensive ones (that come with well-known brand names) when it comes to USB standard compliance.
