My upgrade to testing broke X. It seems that the mouse device can't be found Here's the transcribed error from /var/log/XFree86.0.log: (EE) XF86OpenSerial: cannot open device /dev/input/mice no such file or directory (E) Preinit failed for input device "Configured mouse" Couldn't load XKB keymap, falling back to pre-XKB keymap No core pointer Fatal server error: failed to initialize core devices
If I can figure out how to email the entire log file from a terminal I'll provide it if it will help. I tried: Cat /var/log/XFree86.0.log | mail -s"error" [EMAIL PROTECTED] This never made it for some reason even though I seem to be online. Ed -----Original Message----- From: David A.
