Hi,
I can confirm that this bug entered testing sometime between 2009/12/02 and
2009/12/08.
On 2009/12/08 I ran an update and after the next reboot the mouse pointer did
not move anymore (standard USB Dell Optical Mouse), neither in X or in console
with gpm, and /dev/mice, /dev/input/mice, /dev/psaux were empty when I moved
the mouse. The previous update was on 2009/12/02.
I have attached the commit log from Synaptic. As you can see from it the kernel
was not updated, so I am unsure this bug should be filled against the kernel.
My guess is it could come from hal, which was updated. But perhaps is it not so
obvious.
Sorry for the delay in commenting on this bug, I was busy and then away from
work (problem happened on my work computer). Unfortunately I cannot provide any
extra feedback as my IT department changed my mouse for a Logitech one that is
still recognized.
Good luck for fixing.
