2.6.12.5: psmouse mouse detection doesn't work

Hi folks,

At boot time my Logitech mouse is detected as

I: Bus=0011 Vendor=0002 Product=0001 Version=0000
N: Name="PS/2 Generic Mouse"
P: Phys=isa0060/serio1/input0
H: Handlers=event1 ts0 mouse0
B: EV=7
B: KEY=70000 0 0 0 0
B: REL=3

After manually reloading psmouse I get the expected

I: Bus=0011 Vendor=0002 Product=0002 Version=0049
N: Name="PS2++ Logitech Mouse"
P: Phys=isa0060/serio1/input0
H: Handlers=event1 ts0 mouse0
B: EV=7
B: KEY=f0000 0 0 0 0
B: REL=3

Using psmouse_noext=1 at boot time does not help.

How comes that this doesn't work on the first run?

I asked this more than a year ago, and somebody posted
a fix, but obviously it wasn't accepted.

What needs to be done to fix this?


Regards

Harri

Harri-

I was having problems with my psmouse also.  Try the kernel boot option 
"usb-handoff", see if that helps.  This is just a suggestion.  I have 
nothing to do with the development of that driver.

Good Luck.

Does booting with "usb-handoff" on the kernel boot line help?

    If psmouse is a module, you'd need to pass proto=bare as a module
parameter rather than on the kernel command line.  Check `modinfo
psmouse`.

    Are you sure proto=imps hasn't found its way into
/etc/modprobe.conf or so?  I could imagine a distribution shipping
this way.
