After dist-upgrading my breezy installation today, X stopped working.
A quick glance at the log file revealed:
(**) Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2"
(**) Configured Mouse: Device: "/dev/input/mice"
(**) Configured Mouse: Protocol: "ImPS/2"
(**) Option "CorePointer"
(**) Configured Mouse: Core Pointer
(**) Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
(EE) xf86OpenSerial: Cannot open device /dev/input/mice
No such file or directory.
(EE) Configured Mouse: cannot open input device
(EE) PreInit failed for input device "Configured Mouse"
(II) UnloadModule: "mouse"
(WW) No core pointer registered
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Generic Keyboard" (type: KEYBOARD)
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "NVIDIA Event Handler" (type: Other)
No core pointer
Fatal server error:
failed to initialize core devices
And indeed it's correct, there is no entry in /dev/ for my mouse any more.
The mouse is lit up fine and a lsusb reveals:
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 046d:c016 Logitech, Inc. Optical Mouse
.. so i think the mouse is working fine. A little help here?
