USB mouse on fc3


hey, i just installed the latest version of fc3 on my machine, and everything worked great. however after running yum update to update everything (which worked fine), i also updated the kernel to 2.6.10, and after rebooting my usb mouse doesn't work anymore. is this a common problem? and if so, is there a fix for it?

Same here

Same thing happened to me. Upgraded using apt-get upgrade and boom. No mouse.

Update: This mobo has lost hardware USB capability coincident with the upgrade. Mice no longer works in BIOS either, although USB is enabled it is not being detected by OS. Not even the install CD will detect any of my USB devices.

Update. After shutting down for a few minutes USB is now being detected by FC3. Must have been a short in the mouse. Taking it back to Orifice Max.
