 Posted: Fri Oct 08, 2004 3:30 pm Post subject: USB Mouse Troubleshooting |
 |
|
So I was working on finishing up my Gentoo installation on my way out this morning. I finally go the video drivers as well as xorg and fluxbox working (hopefully). I did notice however when I got into fluxbox that my ps2 mouse was not recognized. Now, I know when I get back I have a couple places to look to debug this problem:
BIOS
kernel
xorg.conf
I was wondering if there is anything else I might need to check. I want to develop a battle plan and realized I'm not entirely familiar with how usb connections and usb mice specifically are set up (meaning the process starting at the BIOS and ending in your wm or de). What commands should I run and what files should I check to find out if a usb mouse if functioning properly? |

Ryle,
The BIOS does not play a big part in the workings of USB mice or keyboards.
Open a terminal window and do | Code: | | cat /dev/input/mice. |
This should get you jibberish when you move the mouse. If not, your kernel needed to be fixed.
To see what needs fixed in the kernel, look in /proc/bus/usb/devices.
If the file is empty or missing, you don't even have the hardware drivers installed for your motherboard USB hardware . Configure the USB section of your kernel. Use modules so you only need do | Code: | make modules
make modules_install |
Modprobe the modules you just built and do the cat test again.
When that works xorg.conf needs to point to /dev/input/mice to pick up the USB mouse. I use protocol auto.

| Still having USB mouse issues. cat /dev/input/mice shows nothing when I move the mouse. I am not sure what I should be looking for in /proc/bus/usb/devices |

Ryle,
It will show you a graphic and detials of the tree of usb devices you have.
Since there is nothing on | Code: | | cat /dev/input/mice |
your fist problem is your kernel. In your Kerenl config you need to configute the following in USB support :_
| Code: | Support for Host-side USB
USB device filesystem
OHCI HCD support or UHCI HCD (most Intel and VIA) support
USB Human Interface Device (full HID) support
HID input layer support |
You may choose otjher things to if you need to.
You must choose the right OHCI/UHCI driver to suit your motherboard hardware. Provided yo have onlt added modules, build and install the modules, then modprobe them.

Here is an interesting note from dmesg:
input: USB HID v1.00 Keyboard [Gyration GyroPoint DF Technology Receiver] on usb-0000:00:02.0-2
Now, it looks like its detecting my wireless mouse receiver as a keyboard? |

Ryle,
usbview needs X, so it won't work from a terminal..
Use | Code: | | /usr/sbin/lsusb -v | less |
(with and without the -v) to see the same information.
Don't worry too much about the description of the receiver.

| Ok, I do see the Gyration appears in the lsusb. It does say "cannot get report descriptor", not sure what that means. The bInterfaceProtocol is "1 Leyboard". What should I be looking for in the output? |

| Ok, have done a ton of troubleshooting tonight and still came up empty. I've tried compiling all the usb support for the kernel as modules. An interesting thing is that I can't even get my ps/2 mouse to work. There is no /dev/mouse. When I boot up the livecd /dev/mouse responds to my ps2 mouse when I cat, /dev/input/mice does nothing still. I know the system is recognizing the mouse because I see various references to it in dmesg, proc, and lsusb. I dunno, I also know the mouse works because before I had this mobo I had the mouse working in a gentoo 2.6.x kernel with my old mobo. Wonder if its the nforce2 chipset? |

| In my "lsmod" none of the modules have anything lised under the "Used by" column. Each row just lists "-". Is this normal? |

Ryle,
OK. Lets cut our losses and start at the very beginning.
Please post your lspci output so I can see what sort of root hubs you have. (emerge pciutils if needed)
Also post the the USB section of your kernel .config file. Its at the top of the kerenl tree, normally, /usr/src/linux/.config.
Your PS/2 mouse will be on /dev/psaux or to be pedantic, /dev/misc/psaux, the other names are symbolic links. It is possible to make a kernel with no mouse support at all too.

Also, all the USB entries in the kernel are modules now but they were all tried first compiled directly in. Here is an lsmod so you can see the modules I have:
| Code: | Module Size Used by
nvidia 4818004 -
evdev 7328 -
agpgart 27400 -
usbhid 22248 -
ohci_hcd 26668 -
usbcore 110404 -
psmouse 17872 -
|
I have an ASUS A7N8X-E motherboard and am running 2.8.7-r7 (gentoo-dev-sources). I added the psaux support in the kernel and it created the /dev/mouse and /dev/misc/psaux but the ps2 mouse still doesn't work. When I use the live cd the ps2 mouse works but still no luck with the usb. |

Hi,
I too have usb mouse problems in Xorg. I've activated all necessary kernel-usb-options (as mentioned above) and tried
| Code: |
cat /dev/psaux
cat /dev/mouse
cat /dev/usbmouse
cat /dev/input/mice
|
but no response (can I do that from bash ?).
Have the /proc/bus/usb/devices file with weird stuff in it.
Also unsuccessful tried all "Device" Options in xorg.conf, which looks like:
| Code: |
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Device" "/dev/usbmouse"
EndSection
|
dmesg | grep usb shows:
| Code: |
usb.c: registered new driver usbdevfs
usb.c: registered new driver hub
host/usb-ohci.c: USB OHCI at membase 0xf0844000, IRQ 12

usb.c: registered new driver hid
usb.c: registered new driver usblp
usb.c: registered new driver usb-storage

|
any suggestions ?
thx
// edit: my mouse is a MS Intelli Optical Explorer (5Button)
// edit: usbmouse points at /dev/input/mice |

Ryle,
Your kernel looks good. Next time you rebuild it turn off CONFIG_USB_DEBUG, it just writes loads of things to your logs that you won'r need and slows down USB in the process.
When you say that your mice don't work do you mean in X or the cat test ?
If | Code: | | cat /dev/input/mice |
produces gibberish when you move the mouse, that mouse is working. Actually, all mice events come out on /dev/input/mice, so if you have several mice plugged in at the same time, moving any of them should produce some output.
Each USB mouse should also get you a device of the form /dev/input/mouseN, so you can seperate mouse events if you need to. If /dev/input/mouse0 is missing, it may be devfs is not creating the device when the USB mouse is detected.
If its X thats not seeing the mouse, thats either X looking in the wronng place or for the wrong mouse protocol.

Please post your /proc/bus/usb/devices files.

| hahahah, ok, so here's an interesting bit of troubleshooting (don't know why I didn't think of this before). Took the usb mouse from my wife's computer and plugged it in and it ran no problem. This one is a logitech. The one that still doesn't work is a wireless Gyration mouse. |

I got /dev filesystem support in kernel. At startup "devfsd" is loaded.
Can't locate /dev/input/mouse0. Changed Protocol in xorg.conf to "Microsoft",
does do nothing.
So I have devfs but its not creating /dev/input/mouse0, but it should ?

quarx,
Until your kernel passes the cat test, no applications will see the mouse.
What kernel are you using?

Ryle,
OK its time for the daft questions.
Your radio USB mouse does 8 radio channes and 2^15 (36,000) security codes. You did follow the instructions to establish the radio link correctly didn't you?
Your substitution test shows everything else is working.

quarx,
I have been using 2.6 as a model but 2.4 is similar.
Can you post the USB section of your kernel .config file please.
Its at /usr/src/linux/.config unless you have made an other kernel and not updated the symbolic link.
In 2.4 (and 2.6) you must turn off the USB HIDBP options that appear below HID Inpput Layer Support on the USB configuration menu. In 2.6, thouse options have been moved, so they are less likely to be turned on accidently.
