I am trying to configure a an optical USB mouse for use with my Debian machine. I've been using this system with Debian for several months now, and this is the last piece of hardware on my system that isn't fully usable. (I'm using a regular PS/2 mouse now)
I'm using the stock 2.4.21 kernel on Sid with separately compiled openafs and nvidia modules. The required USB drivers are installed in the running kernel (hid, usbcore, usb-uhci, input). My mouse is detected by usb-uhci which states this (from dmesg): usb-uhci.c: USB UHCI at I/O 0xef80, IRQ 10 usb-uhci.c: Detected 2 ports usb.c: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 1 hub.c: USB hub found hub.c: 2 ports detected usb-uhci.c: v1.275:USB Universal Host Controller Interface driver hub.c: new USB device 00:1f.2-1, assigned address 2 usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 3, frame# 635 input0: USB HID v1.10 Mouse [Microsoft Microsoft Wireless Intellimouse Explorer® 1.0A] on usb1:2.0 However, X cannot open /dev/input/mice with the error "no such device". I tried `cat /dev/input/mice` and received the same error... but `ls /dev/input` shows that it is there! I'm not using gpm, and don't have any need for it, I just want my mouse to work with X.
