Interesting - on my laptop:

 12:215  XT-PIC  PS/2 Mouse

(and similarly on myu desktop box, too). For some reason it looks like
either no interrupt is assigned to the psaux hardware, or your kernel
isn't detecting it - can you poke around in the bios and see if there's
a setting you can change?

Is X trying to use /dev/mouse or /dev/psaux?  Do you have the protocol listed
as ImPS/2 or PS/2?  Could gpm be taking it over?

"not able to use" is not clear.  Does it not work at all, behave erratically,
etc?

It is the default kernel. As far as know it is compiled in, the
module file is not on the system. I looked for psaux.o

No, I'm not aware of any problems:

Is X definitely configured to use /dev/psaux?

PS/2 - /dev/psaux not working (Woody)

2002-03-03 Thread Jan H. van Gils
Hi,

Thanks for reading message.

After installing my Laptop (Dell Inspiron 3200) with Debian Woody
I am not able to use my /dev/psaux (PS/2 mouse).

The system was running NetBSD this morning and de mouse was
functioning with no problems. (The NetBSD was a XFree 4.1.x)
To be shore a swapped the mouse with a different one and had
the same problem.

Are there any known issues with the PS/2 mouse and Woody ?

Jan

"not able to use" is not clear.  Does it not work at all, behave erratically,

To be shore a swapped the mouse with a different one and had
