What type of mouse and what location are you telling "dpkg-reconfigure"?I have a Compaq ProLiant 1600 that was running the stock 3.0r1 kernel (2.2.20-idepci). I upgraded it via apt-get to 2.4.21-5-686-smp.
While using 2.2.20-idepci, the mouse worked fine in X (using icewm).
Since upgrading to 2.4.21-5-686-smp, the mouse no longer works. I have tried two different PS/2 mice and a serial mouse.
I have ran 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86' about 50 times.
I ran 'modconf' and made sure the PS/2 input device module was loaded.
There is no error. As a matter of fact, the mouse ~pointer~ is there in the middle of the screen... it just doesn't move.
If I use the LILO menu to boot back into the old kernel, the mouse works
again.
Are you running gpm? If so, does the mouse work in console? If not, you might try installing gpm just as a test and see if the mouse works in console, then uninstall gpm so it doesn't interfere with X (or reconfigure X and gpm to work together).
