up sarge to etch usb mouse problem!


I upgrade sarge to etch, but at boot usb optical mouse isn't recognized (the led is off). I installed the usbmouse and usbhid modules using modconf but doesn't work! My kernel is 2.6.18.3.

When i do plug the mouse dmesg says:

and in xorg.conf (doesn't matters because mouse is off)

        Option          "Protocol"              "ImPS/2"
        Option          "Emulate3Buttons"       "true"
EndSection
Thanks in advance!

USB & etch

Welcome!

I have the same problem that caos21. After upgrade from sarge to etch my USB mouse (Logitech) stops working. As I noticed the mouse isn't even detected by the system. I think this is a problem with system configuration because neither modules nor kernel files have been modified during upgrade. I load all required modules (usbcore, usbmouse, usbhid, mousedev) but it didn't help. They loads correctly, but mouse is still not visible to the system. Have anybody similar problem? Or maybe samebody could explain, what is the difference between USB support and configuration in sarge and etch?

Thanx in advance.

I had similar problems when I tried to upgrade from Sarge to Etch. I ended up just doing a clean install of Etch with the RC1 netinstall. Definitely a much cleaner and easier process. If you don't have alot of time invested in your current install, that might be the way to go.

Try putting these into your xorg.conf
I dont know which it is, but one of these sections should do the trick . . hope it works! let me know if you figure out which one.

I think this is not a problem with xorg. This must be general problem with USB. I load all required modules, but mouse not works - neither in terminal mode nor under X. Under X the cursor is visible but that's all - you cannot move it. Besides, the power led is dark, what means that mouse is not detected by modules. There is nothing special in logs. Maybe there are some conflicts between modules?

Hi, I also think that, seems to me that i load the required modules too. it's something weird i can mount flashdisks. the necessary modules are the usb human interface device (usbhid), usbcore and usbmouse or they aren't?

In other machine i installed etch from netinst and the same mouse is recognized and load this modules: usbcore usbhid
