Package:linux-image-2.6.12-1-686 Version:2.6.12-10 This is an intermittent bug that has just got worse. I have a Toshiba Portege 7020CT with a builtin trackpoint and a PS/2 mouse that I connect via the PS/2 port in a port extension. The trackpoint is working fine but the PS/2 mouse behaves strangely (moves at random, gives out random mouse click events) and I get this in my kern.log: Nov 9 17:45:49 portege kernel: psmouse.c: Mouse at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost synchronization, throwing 1 bytes away.
I have "psmouse proto=bare" in my /etc/modules, and have tried the solutions suggested at http://www.kerneltraffic.org/kernel-traffic/kt20040212_252.html, including stopping apmd. I also have speedstep_lib in my /etc/modules. Any other info on request. Cheers David
