I've had problems with intermittent loss of input and power to a Logitech USB mouse with Ubuntu 9.10. I tried possible solutions suggested here and some elsewhere without joy. I finally tried to reduce electrical interference sheerly as a last resort because I thought this would be the least likely problem. Simply moving my mouse cord away from my CRT monitor and placing aluminum foil between my mouse cord and monitor provided a solution to this annoying problem. The problem has been resolved for 1 week now, no other solution suggestions helped. To verify, I duplicated my previous setup and the problem returned.
I first undid all the other changes I had applied and verified the problem still existed. No updates or other software/hardware changes occured between my solution and problem verification. I first started noticing the problem when I changed a CRT monitor location (but did not realize the connection at first, all hindsight), the mouse cord had been placed behind and around the back of the CRT monitor. I'm not sure this will solve everyone's problem, there's a lot of potential EMI sources, but certainly worth some further testing. -- Feisty: usb mouse stops working https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/84762 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
