As you can see I'm directing x to "/dev/input/mice". How can I be sure> my kernel is using /dev/input/mice for the usb mouse?
As root: cat /dev/input/mice move the mouse around, and see if anything shows up on the screen. If yes, the mouse is probably working properly.
cat: mice: no such device
This suggests that your mouse is not registering with the system. Do you have hotplug &| the kernel module (if it is not built in) for usb mice?
I'm not certain. To be honest my prior *nix experiance is as a user, not admin.
I think the output from lsmod I posted in my other reply sugest not?
Please do not CC people unless it is explicitly requested.
Hmmm... Sorry, Opera acts strangely when replying to lists. Noted.
