(touchpad) Pointer Config in XF86Config:
Section "Pointer"
Protocol "GlidePoint"
Device "/dev/mouse"
Port "/dev/mouse"
Buttons 3
Where is this pointer freezing up? The
problem _may_ have begun after upgrading
to potato (apt-get update, apt-get
dist-upgrade). An strace of the two loads
doesn't show any clear point of freeze (that
this newbie recognizes). The pointer often
freezes after a screen-saver has been on.
Temporary solution: moving the pointer as it loads
stops the freezing; I'm trying to laugh.
Could it be permissions? A mouse driver?
These (no guessing!) are the dev links:
srwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jan 8 15:32 /dev/gpmctl
prw-rw-r-- 1 root root 0 Nov 24 11:50 /dev/gpmdata
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 5 Nov 24 12:44 /dev/mouse -> ttyS0
Any suggestions would be appreciated. TIA
