I have tried 2.6.19, 2.6.19-r1, and 2.6.19-r2 and cant get my mouse to work. Can anyone help?
I'm using same .config as I have since ... well forever it seems.

dmesg portion from working 2.6.18-r3
Code:

PNP: PS/2 Controller [PNP0303:PS2K,PNP0f13:PS2M] at 0x60,0x64 irq 1,12
serio: i8042 AUX port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12
serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq 1
gameport: NS558 PnP Gameport is pnp00:0e/gameport0, io 0x201, speed 701kHz
mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice
input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /class/input/input0
FDC 0 is a post-1991 82077
input: ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse as /class/input/input1
RAMDISK driver initialized: 16 RAM disks of 8192K size 1024 blocksize


dmesg portion from broken 2.6.19*
Code:

PNP: PS/2 Controller [PNP0303:PS2K,PNP0f13:PS2M] at 0x60,0x64 irq 1,12
serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq 1
gameport: NS558 PnP Gameport is pnp00:0e/gameport0, io 0x201, speed 693kHz
mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice
input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /class/input/input0
FDC 0 is a post-1991 82077
RAMDISK driver initialized: 16 RAM disks of 8192K size 1024 blocksize

Seems I don't get input1 so /dev/psaux nor /dev/input/mice works
Code:

# lspci
00:00.0 Host bridge: nVidia Corporation nForce2 AGP (different version?) (rev c1)
00:00.1 RAM memory: nVidia Corporation nForce2 Memory Controller 0 (rev c1)

00:1e.0 PCI bridge: nVidia Corporation nForce2 AGP (rev c1)
02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV43 [GeForce 6200] (rev a1)



any ideas?

It looks as though you've got a PS/2 mouse. In that case, perhaps this
Code:
Symbol: MOUSE_PS2 [=y]
Prompt: PS/2 mouse
  Defined at drivers/input/mouse/Kconfig:15
  Depends on: INPUT && INPUT_MOUSE
  Location:
    -> Device Drivers
      -> Input device support
        -> Generic input layer (needed for keyboard, mouse, ...) (INPUT
          -> Mouse (INPUT_MOUSE [=y])
  Selects: SERIO && SERIO_LIBPS2 && SERIO_I8042 && SERIO_GSCPS2
is relevant.
Also in "Input device support"
Code:
---   Input Device Drivers
---   Keyboards  --->
[*]   Mouse  --->
leading to
Code:
--- Mouse
<*>   PS/2 mouse
< >   Serial mouse
< >   DEC VSXXX-AA/GA mouse and VSXXX-AB tablet

Code:

cat .config|grep MOUSE
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV=y
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_PSAUX=y
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_SCREEN_X=1024
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_SCREEN_Y=768

One last service :)

I've unplugged the usual USB mouse and (after powering off, I killed a motherboard by plugging and unplugging PS/2 keyboard and mouse) plugged in a PS/2 mouse. Running with the same kernel, 2.6.19-gentoo-r2, no change to the configuration and it works.

Here is the "Input devices" part of .config
Code:
#
# Input device support
#
CONFIG_INPUT=y
# CONFIG_INPUT_FF_MEMLESS is not set

#
# Userland interfaces
#
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV=y
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_PSAUX=y
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_SCREEN_X=1280
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_SCREEN_Y=1024
# CONFIG_INPUT_JOYDEV is not set
# CONFIG_INPUT_TSDEV is not set
CONFIG_INPUT_EVDEV=y
# CONFIG_INPUT_EVBUG is not set

#
# Input Device Drivers
#
CONFIG_INPUT_KEYBOARD=y
CONFIG_KEYBOARD_ATKBD=y
# CONFIG_KEYBOARD_SUNKBD is not set
# CONFIG_KEYBOARD_LKKBD is not set
# CONFIG_KEYBOARD_XTKBD is not set
# CONFIG_KEYBOARD_NEWTON is not set
# CONFIG_KEYBOARD_STOWAWAY is not set
CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSE=y
CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2=y
# CONFIG_MOUSE_SERIAL is not set
# CONFIG_MOUSE_VSXXXAA is not set
# CONFIG_INPUT_JOYSTICK is not set
# CONFIG_INPUT_TOUCHSCREEN is not set
# CONFIG_INPUT_MISC is not set

#
# Hardware I/O ports
#
CONFIG_SERIO=y
CONFIG_SERIO_I8042=y
# CONFIG_SERIO_SERPORT is not set
# CONFIG_SERIO_CT82C710 is not set
# CONFIG_SERIO_PARKBD is not set
# CONFIG_SERIO_PCIPS2 is not set
CONFIG_SERIO_LIBPS2=y
# CONFIG_SERIO_RAW is not set
# CONFIG_GAMEPORT is not set
and here are excerpts from /var/log/messages while it was booting up
Code:
 serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq 1
 serio: i8042 AUX port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12
 mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice

input: PS/2 Generic Mouse as /class/input/input1

ok then I guess I have a stupid question...
how the heck to I change this?
CONFIG_INPUT_FF_MEMLESS=y

Ive tried commenting it out in /usr/src/linux/.config but it gets re added at make && make modules modules_install install.
This option is not selectable or in this case unselectable in menuconfig.
--- Support for memoryless force-feedback devices

--- Support for memoryless force-feedback devices
Not stupid at all, many of the configuration options are selected by previous selections. The converse is when you can't get an option to show in menuconfig because one of the "selecting" options hasn't been enabled.

You can find out what a selection selects itself and what option or combination of options select it by searching for the option name using "/" in menuconfig. In this case it gave
Code:
Symbol: INPUT_FF_MEMLESS [=n]
Prompt: Support for memoryless force-feedback devices
  Defined at drivers/input/Kconfig:27
  Depends on: INPUT
  Location:
    -> Device Drivers
      -> Input device support
        -> Generic input layer (needed for keyboard, mouse, ...) (INPUT [=y])
  Selected by: LOGITECH_FF && HID_FF && USB_HID || THRUSTMASTER_FF && HID_FF &&
EXPERIMENTAL && USB_HID || ZEROPLUS_FF && HID
and, as you can see, the last line is incomplete but it seems to imply that the combination of a force-feed (? no ?) joystick option with HID_FF and USB_HID will select it.

You will be able to find the HID_FF option using "/", you may also have to remove the option supporting your FF joystick.
