Package: linux-image-2.6.15-1-486 Version: 2.6.15-8 Severity: normal
Using the mousedev module doesn't work with sermouse, for my mouse (the mouse is not detected, as evidenced by udev not create a new /dev/input/mouse0 when modprobe sermouse is performed, and X loading, but with a frozen mouse pointer (because /dev/input/mice always exists when mousedev is in use, but there really isn't a detected mouse). My mouse is an old Logitech (which uses the Microsoft protocol, when using /dev/ttyS0 for X) PS/2 mouse with a PS/2 mouse to serial computer adapter (which works, since specifying /dev/ttyS0 and Microsoft mode results in a working mouse for X). This is probably an upstream issue, as I found one reference while Googling. Unfortunately there didn't seem to be any followups, only an indication that it didn't work.
