Hi,

You are also welcome to > send the file to me directly, if you like. I put it on http://www.christeck.de/files/xorg.conf It originally was created by Knoppix :-} . I just added a line at the end of the files section pointing to /dev/input/mice, but it didn't help. > Also, as your device name is "USB Mouse", you should be able to do: > > grep "USB Mouse" /var/log/Xorg.0.log Cool idea, as long we can be sure that there aren't lines around the mouse related lines which report further information. I did cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep -i mouse (**) |-->Input Device "PS/2 Mouse" (**) Option "AllowMouseOpenFail" "true" (II) LoadModule: "mouse" (II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/input/mouse_drv.o (II) Module mouse: vendor="X.Org Foundation" (==) NV(0): Silken mouse enabled (**) PS/2 Mouse: Device: "/dev/psaux" (**) PS/2 Mouse: Protocol: "PS/2" (**) PS/2 Mouse: always reports core events (**) PS/2 Mouse: Core Pointer (**) PS/2 Mouse: Emulate3Buttons, Emulate3Timeout: 70 (**) PS/2 Mouse: ZAxisMapping: buttons 4 and 5 (**) PS/2 Mouse: Buttons: 5 (**) PS/2 Mouse: SmartScroll: 1 (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "PS/2 Mouse" (type: MOUSE) (II) PS/2 Mouse: ps2EnableDataReporting: succeeded (II) PS/2 Mouse: ps2EnableDataReporting: succeeded I wonder that it only tells something about /dev/psaux and PS/S mouse, but where is my USB mouse?
