That's the default config provided by the installer. > The mouse did not work.

So PS/2 on /dev/psaux worked once. Then it would be a kernel problem or so. But you said earlier that pluging on PS/2 did not generate any character in "cat /dev/psaux" or "cat /dev/input/mice". This needs to be clarified. Either /dev/psaux works (and generates characters) or it doesn't at all. > Is it possible that some action (e.g. reboot) is necessary to cause > the kernel to realize there is a mouse on the ps/2 port? > I don't think so. Please check your BIOS in case there some config for the PS/2 port. And check whether PS/2 works in other Linux/OS if you can.
