Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-image-generic

[Edit]: This seems to be happening with some people, although the behavior is
different, a similar bug is #50638.

This is the link to a thread I created with detailed information:

I have upgraded to the 2.6.20-9.6 kernel and the USB mouse stopped working. Here is what I
have collected so far:

- All USB devices (including mouses) are recognized (in syslog), but the mouse cannot control the
cursor.
- This seems to be happening at the kernel level: The mouse does not work in both X and console.
- My laptop hasn't got a PS/2 port, so I couldn't test it.
- The mouse worked normally if I used my own kernel.
- The Synaptic Touchpad worked fine.

Can anyone please confirm this ?, thanks.

Replugging the mouse does not solve this either.
Thanks.
