I can not get my Logitech Trackman USB mouse to work at all! The
kernel (2.4.20) does detect it during boot, and the usbdevfs is mounted.
However, when I cat or tail -f /dev/input/mice, and move the mouse,
nothing changes. The mouse obviously doesn't work in X. Everything is
compiled statically into the kernel. I need to get the USB mouse support
working because I use a kvm switch, and when I use the mouse as a ps/2
mouse (usb to ps/2 adapter included), the mouse goes out of control if
I switch to another box and back.below is a relevant excerpt from dmesg: ======= usb.c: registered new driver usbdevfs usb.c: registered new driver hub usb-uhci.c: $Revision: 1.275 $ time 21:46:20 Nov 30 2002 usb-uhci.c: High bandwidth mode enabled usb-uhci.c: USB UHCI at I/O 0xe800, IRQ 5 usb-uhci.c: Detected 2 ports usb.c: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 1 usb.c: kmalloc IF cff1d480, numif 1 usb.c: new device strings: Mfr=0, Product=2, SerialNumber=1 usb.c: USB device number 1 default language ID 0x0 Product: USB UHCI Root Hub SerialNumber: e800 hub.c: USB hub found hub.c: 2 ports detected hub.c: standalone hub hub.c: ganged power switching hub.c: global over-current protection hub.c: Port indicators are not supported hub.c: power on to power good time: 2ms hub.c: hub controller current requirement: 0mA hub.c: port removable status: RR hub.c: local power source is good hub.c: no over-current condition exists hub.c: enabling power on all ports usb.c: hub driver claimed interface cff1d480 usb-uhci.c: USB UHCI at I/O 0xec00, IRQ 5 usb-uhci.c: Detected 2 ports hub.c: port 1, portstatus 100, change 3, 12 Mb/s hub.c: port 1 connection change hub.c: port 1, portstatus 100, change 3, 12 Mb/s hub.c: port 2, portstatus 300, change 3, 1.5 Mb/s hub.c: port 2 connection change hub.c: port 2, portstatus 300, change 3, 1.5 Mb/s hub.c: port 1, portstatus 100, change 2, 12 Mb/s hub.c: port 1 enable change, status 100 hub.c: port 2, portstatus 300, change 2, 1.5 Mb/s hub.c: port 2 enable change, status 300 usb.c: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 2 usb.c: kmalloc IF cff1d240, numif 1 usb.c: new device strings: Mfr=0, Product=2, SerialNumber=1 usb.c: USB device number 1 default language ID 0x0 Product: USB UHCI Root Hub SerialNumber: ec00 hub.c: USB hub found hub.c: 2 ports detected hub.c: standalone hub hub.c: ganged power switching hub.c: global over-current protection hub.c: Port indicators are not supported hub.c: power on to power good time: 2ms hub.c: hub controller current requirement: 0mA hub.c: port removable status: RR hub.c: local power source is good hub.c: no over-current condition exists hub.c: enabling power on all ports usb.c: hub driver claimed interface cff1d240 usb-uhci.c: v1.275:USB Universal Host Controller Interface driver usb.c: registered new driver hid hid-core.c: v1.8.1 Andreas Gal, Vojtech Pavlik <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> hid-core.c: USB HID support drivers mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice pktgen.c: v1.2: Packet Generator for packet performance testing.
