A FX trackball stopped working properly recently. Investigation showed
that the info.product displayed by hal had changed from "PS2++ Logitech
Mouse" to "PS2++ Logitech TrackMan".
My guess is that this is because I am running a different kernel (stock
2.6.32-rc6), but I am not sure.
Anyway, I simply added a new <device> to the fdi file and all was well.
I have attached the revised file.
Has this file been include in the latest hal version? I have had no
response to this bug.
