This is a strange one; never seen anything like it.

When I startx, my USB mouse does not work. If I switch to a different console and then back to X, then it works fine. If I'm quick-witted and move it around just after typing startx, as long as I move it off dead-centre as X initialises, it works fine. But if I'm too late, then nothing.

How can I stop this? USB support is working fine; as I say, the mouse works, just not after startx without me moving it around.

Any ideas, anyone?

:?

Could you post your emerge --info and xorg.conf here please, that would make it easier for us to help you.
