Subject: No mouse, Power Button (FF) as /class/input/input1
Date: Fri, 18 Apr 2008 18:11:57 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4808C84D.4020009@tiscali.nl> (raw)

I have a PS/2 mouse:

dmesg | grep "^input:"
input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /class/input/input0
input: PS2++ Logitech Wheel Mouse as /class/input/input1
input: Power Button (FF) as /class/input/input2
input: Power Button (CM) as /class/input/input3

About once a month, however, this mouse is not working after boot.

* cat /dev/input/mice does not print when moving mouse
* /etc/rc.d/rc.udev restart; /etc/rc.d/rc.gpm restart does not give a mouse

However, usually after reboot the mouse is working again. I have had this problem
for a few years now, not sure when it started.

when comparing dmesg:
diff -u dmesg_no_mouse dmesg_mouse | grep "^[-+]\(input:\|[-+][-+]\)"
--- dmesg_no_mouse      2008-04-18 10:17:58.000000000 +0200
