Description Manuel MArtinez 2007-09-19 16:34:04 UTC
my system works fine. KDE load without problem, but no mouse works in KDE.
I updated Xorg to 1.4, and in the /var/logs/Xorg.0.log i can see this error:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
II) LoadModule: "mouse"
(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input//mouse_drv.so
dlopen: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input//mouse_drv.so: undefined symbol: miPointerGetMotionEvents
(EE) Failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input//mouse_drv.so
(II) UnloadModule: "mouse"
(EE) Failed to load module "mouse" (loader failed, 7)

Did you rebuild x11-drivers/xf86-input-mouse after the xorg-server upgrade?

I've had exactly the same problem and your suggestion solved it, Jeroen, thanks!

Nevertheless, wouldn't it be good to maybe add a little post-install message about this? A non-functional core input device can be rather startling... ;)
