Try it in a different USB port. Open a terminal and run su - -c "tail -f /var/log/messages" You will be prompted for the root password. You will see the "end" of the /var/log/messages file: many system messages are logged here. Plug in the mouse, and see what lines are output. Hope this helps, James.</blockquote><div> In the new kernel the usb mouse doesn't work. Usb mouse doesn't work in any usb port. The usb mouse works in old kernel and also in Windows. I tried that /var/log/message: <meta http-equiv="CONTENT-TYPE" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><title></title><meta name="GENERATOR" content="OpenOffice.org 2.0 (Linux)"><meta name="CREATED" content="20060223;22162100"><meta name="CHANGED" content="20060223;22350800"> <style>  </style> Var/log/messages, when I used OLD kernel (usb mouse worked in both usb ports). I unplugged usb mouse and replugged to an another us port: Feb 23 22:13:40 localhost kernel: usb 4-2: USB disconnect, address 2 Feb 23 22:13:40 localhost udev[2985]: main: action, subsystem or devpath missing Feb 23 22:13:51 localhost kernel: usb 4-1: new low speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3 Feb 23 22:13:51 localhost kernel: input: USB HID v1.00 Mouse [HP HP USB WHEEL MOUSE] on usb-0000:00:10.2-1 Feb 23 22:13:51 localhost udev[3029]: main: action, subsystem or devpath missing Var/log/messages, when I used NEW kernel. I unplugged not working usb mouse and replugged to an another us port (mouse didn't work): Feb 23 22:27:09 localhost kernel: usb 4-1: USB disconnect, address 2 Feb 23 22:27:14 localhost kernel: usb 4-2: new low speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3 Feb 23 22:27:14 localhost kernel: input: HP HP USB WHEEL MOUSE as /class/input/input3 Feb 23 22:27:14 localhost kernel: input: USB HID v1.00 Mouse [HP HP USB WHEEL MOUSE] on usb-0000:00:10.2-2 Var/log/messages, when I used new kernel. I unplugged ONCE AGAIN the not working usb mouse and replugged to an another us port: Feb 23 22:31:30 localhost kernel: usb 4-2: USB disconnect, address 3 Feb 23 22:31:34 localhost kernel: usb 4-1: new low speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 4 Feb 23 22:31:35 localhost kernel: input: HP HP USB WHEEL MOUSE as /class/input/input4 Feb 23 22:31:35 localhost kernel: input: USB HID v1.00 Mouse [HP HP USB WHEEL MOUSE] on usb-0000:00:10.2-1 So, here aren't any clue where is the reason for problem or are there? What now? yours Kari Myllykangas </div> </div>
