My Logitech usb mouse is not working. Maybe someone could offer some help?
here's my setup:
2.4 kernel with usb support and mousedev
lsusb gives me:
| Code: |
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 046d:c00e Logitech, Inc. Optical Mouse
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

cat /dev/input/mice just hangs with no output.
let's see...
dmesg | grep usb gives:
| Code: |
usb.c: registered new driver usbdevfs
usb.c: registered new driver hub
usb.c: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 1
usb.c: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 2
usb.c: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 3
usb.c: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 4
usb.c: registered new driver hid
usb.c: registered new driver usb-storage
: USB HID v1.10 Mouse [Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse] on usb3:2.0

I think I have all the drivers I need, and I know nothing is wrong with my xorg.conf because it worked with slackware.
Thanks.

| Forgive my asking but did you try cat /dev/mouse ? I know there are something entries that look like they work for the mouse and then don't. |

Well this is a laptop, so /dev/mouse is the builtin mouse, so it does work. The odd thing about this is that the mouse is obviosly being detected, but nothing is happaning. If no one has any ideas I might try a newer kernel.

In my /dev I have:
/dev/usbmouse
/dev/mouse
/dev/input/mouse0
/dev/input/mice
/dev/psaux (this does work as some USB mouses can use the old PS/2 Protocol)
One of these should work. Seeing as how you have two mouses on your laptop instead of just one you may concider looking under /dev/usb for other devices. |
