Ah. Well. There is that. Have you tried running 'xorgsetup' to rebuild your xorg.conf? That might get your X going again with a mouse even if some other settings were not quite right.

Yes i did,
i compiled 180 packages of x.org today.
reinstalled x.org whit that xorgconfig
and reinstalled my nvidia driver.

so my x.org is up and running.
eaven did.
nvidia-xconfig -mouse-list
nvidia-xconfig -mouse=genericwheelusb

but this is.
i am using an set
lx710
so it's usb keyboard and mouse on one stick / usb cable.

keyboard still is working fine
also tryd
nvidia-xconfig -mouse=logimmusboptical
becouse it's a laser mouse

Code:

less /proc/bus/input/devices

Is your mouse listed in there?

R03L · 04-19-2008, 08:57 AM

man nvidia-xconfig

Code:

nvidia-xconfig --post-tree

Using xconfiguration file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf"

In addition to /proc/bus/input/devices you can also check to see if psmouse is loaded:

Code:

modprobe -l psmouse

/lib/modules/2.6.21.5/kernel/drivers/input/mouse/psmouse.ko

My well of suggestions is close to drying up. You might try restarting gpm to see if the mouse will come up in console. That would at least isolate the problem to X or not.

Code:

/etc/rc.d/rc.gpm restart

For X you might try protocol "auto" in addition to the other ones you've tried. And finally if you're on slackware-current you might take a look at '/etc/modprobe.d/psmouse'. This is where you put the boot protocol options for psmouse.

Of course, were I paying attention I would see that you're not on slackware-current but on 12.0. Did you upgrade your X server from what the default is in 12.0?

R03L · 04-19-2008, 09:58 AM

and this all afther updating 180 folders of source of the latest
x.org X11R7.3 also tried some version bevore that.
but same question.
hours of work so i WON't Reinstall.

There are so many possibilities it's not funny. First of all, you need to learn to use links or lynx so you can post your xorg.conf (or, alternatively, learn some keyboard shortcuts so you can do it through X). It's incredibly difficult to "guess" the problem when it could be a really bad xorg.conf. Second, you built this Xorg yourself. Xorg is a huge set of programs, and it's entirely possible that you messed something up. Out of curiosity, WHY did you need to update Xorg so badly? If you really wanted a newer X than provided in 12.0, you could always try -current.

I realize my tone is not so nice, but after reading...

Have you upgraded your xf86-input-mouse package also?
