Upgrading to xfree-4.3.0-r7 loses my mouse. It is a standard Logitech three button PS/2 mouse. I have yet to try 4.3.0-r6, but 4.3.0-r5 works perfectly. I tried xorg-6.8.0 and still no mouse, so my guess is maybe there was a backport of something from xorg that broke my mouse? This is with 2.6.7+devfs and with 2.6.9-rc1-mm4+udev, with or without ATI binary drivers. (-r5 works good on all of these.) Incidentally, the same upgrade sends my monitor to sleep mode with 1600x1200. Lowering the resolution to 1280x960 works again, but I would much rather keep the bigger resolution that works with -r5. Not having a mouse is the bigger problem for me though :) . Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge -u xfree 2. watch mouse break :)
Please reassign this bug to the responsible herd, x11@gentoo.org
Andrew Ross, you have the ability to reassign bus as well (saves you typing by doing that :)
Thanks for the tip, Seemant. I'm not sure when things changed, because I never used to be able to change attributes like that on bugs where I wasn't the reporter or assignee (perhaps I'm thinking of changes to URL, severity, etc though). Anyway, sorry for the bugzilla comment/email spam.
that's an easy answer -- I up'd your privs
I had a similiar problem with udev, but was resolve when I changed my mouse device from /dev/mouse to /dev/psaux in xorg.conf. Does this work for you?
Still waiting for info from reporter.
