[Bug 30224] Re: Optical mouse

Tue May 23 15:40:33 UTC 2006

Hi,

I just tested the mouse with Dapper 6.06 and it dindnt work for me.
It follows some additional info:

$ uname -a
Linux rav 2.6.15-23-amd64-k8 #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu May 18 16:58:05 UTC 2006 x86_64 GNU/Linux

When I plug the PS2 optical mouse (which works on windows) its light turn on for a second and then turn off (I cant move the cursor but buttons work).
dmesg:
....
[64308.648120] input: ImExPS/2 Generic Explorer Mouse as /class/input/input3
...

Accordingly with http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5703, this
problem was fixed on kernel 2.6.16 but Dapper is using 2.6.15, is there
a way to backport this fix?

Thank you in advance.
