Hi,
sometimes, mouse simply stops working with X. Everything else (eg.
keyboard) keeps working. I have no choice (AFAIK) but shutdown X with
CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE, which sometimes makes me lose stuff I was doing.
I use latest 4.3.0-55 packages for Fedora, with NVidia driver 5336. My
mouse-related settings on XF86Config are:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Default Layout"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
# InputDevice "DevInputMice" "AlwaysCore"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
EndSection
# Section "InputDevice"
# If the normal CorePointer mouse is not a USB mouse then
# this input device can be used in AlwaysCore mode to let you
# also use USB mice at the same time.
# Identifier "DevInputMice"
# Driver "mouse"
# Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
# Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
# Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
# Option "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
# EndSection
My mouse is an optical MS Intellimouse, attached do PS/2 port. The
reported behavior happens either if I keep gpm running or not while on
X./var/log/XFree86.0.log says:
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "DevInputMice" (type: MOUSE)
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "NVIDIA Event Handler" (type:
Other)(II) Mouse0: ps2EnableDataReporting: succeeded
Any hints on what to do to narrow down the cause of the problem? Should
I post this to NVIDIA ML?
TIA
Andre
