Hello all!
I have just installed a kernel 2.6.2 on my box and cannot make my X work. I read /usr/share/doc/kernel-doc-2.6.2/README.Debian where it says:
"PS/2 Mice --------- If your PS/2 mouse does not work, make sure that the modules psmouse and mousedev are loaded."
Well, I got intel-agp, psmouse, mousedev and sermouse loaded but X still complains about "no core pointer".
I have a debian woody heavly backported, running X 4.3, kernel 2.6.2 (X works fine with 2.4.22). Machine is a Dell Optiplex GX 110 with a i810 video card and a ps/2 mouse.
I googled but could not find anything besides that doc above. Can you help me, point a doc, url?
Thanks a lot, best regards.
I had the same problem with my current workstation when I reinstalled at 2.6.2. The solution for me was in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4, the mouse device had to be defined as /dev/input/mouse0. Here's the relevant section of my config:
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mouse0"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"Worked fine after that, YMMV.
Randy
