bk_2_3: USB mouse weirdness

bk_2_3: USB mouse weirdness

[Michel Dänzer]

I finally upgraded my Pismo to 128M RAM, and it really rocks with bitkeeper's
2.4.0-test10-pre1 :)


However, there is one oddity: When I quit my GNOME session, the USB mouse
doesn't work anymore. The same if I switch from X to console. Un- and
replugging the mouse resurrects it. The trackpad works fine all the time, also
via the input layer.


Not tragic, but annoying.

This is not a PPC problem, it is a USB problem - I've also seen it on my
i386 scratch box.

Gunther Mayer posted a patch for this problem on the linux-usb-devel
mailing list, see:

I haven't tried the fix yet, YMMV.
