Hi,
Can I get the touch pad and the ps2 mouse I'm using both to work?
I got the mouse to work with the /dev/psaux and I think the /dev/mouse
device worked before with the touch pad but now doesn't work.
Can I have two Pointer sections in XF86Config?
Currently it looks like this.

Bios doesn't have any settings for supporting both. If the mouse is
plugged in the pad doesn't work and if it's unplugged the pad works with
no rebooting or anything - interesting.

anything reported
about this.
Is this a problem that needs to be looked at for the distribution?
It sure makes the out of box experience with Debian a little rough.

I'm not able to get USB to work so would appreciate some help. I'm using

so far. I used the procedures from the docs on linux-usb.org.

Hi,
Both my ethernet Controller and the cardbus are using the same interrupt
and I'm told this is suboptimal as it is sharing it with USB. PCMCIA is
working but USB is not(2.2.19 kernel).
How can I update /etc/pcmcia.conf to remedy this?
Here is the USB and the PCMCIA dmesg output. The first pa
