I did a netinst with LXDE desktop and plugging in my USB Dell 2 button wheel mouse worked. It has the 2.6.26 kernel.

Around Aug, 09, I did a safe-upgrade and now the mouse is not working at all. The touchpad continues to work.

When I run dmesg | tail, I see 'New USB device found' after unplugging & re plugging the mouse in the port.

I just plugged in a usb thumbdrive and it is detected and automounted.

I posted this issue in the Debian forum hoping to find an answer but so far nothing solid. I even install the 2.6.30 kernel from Sid but that has brought on a completely different issue, It won't boot.

Now I'm beginning sometimes to wonder what is going on in the Debian development camp.

Just a small rant. ]]> FredGSanford http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/blog.php?b=2181
