Yet another Mouse problem...
Hi all,
I've been going through all the debian-Sparc mail archives to avoid bothering anybody with yet another mouse question. I've found bits of what I'm looking for, but nothing seems to work. After about a week of playing with this, I'm getting to the end of my rope.
Anyway, I've got a dual processor Ultra 2, with a sun type 5 keyboard, and a sun mouse (Compact 1) plugged into the keyboard. I've got Debian 3.0 r1 installed, and X up and running. The only problem is that the mouse doesn't work! Here's what I've done so far:
I've replaced the mouse thinking that the hardware might be bad
I've followed the advice from this list given in march 2001 of doing:
cd /dev
rm sunmouse
mknod -m 600 sunmouse c 10 6
I've installed egcs64 (which wasn't installed for some reason)
I've re-deleted sunmouse and re mknod'ed
I've looked in /proc/interrupts and I don't see anything that looks like a mouse. The interrupts I've got are 0-timer, 4-ESP SCSI, 5-HAPPY MEAL,11-floppy, 12-Zilog8530, 15-"SYSIO UE:7f4, SYSIO CE:7f5, SYSIO SBUS Error:7f6"
My /dev/mouse = mouse->sunmouse
gpm is NOT running
my XF86Config-4 file looks OK, my "configued mouse" points to /dev/sunmouse protocol = busmouse, then my "generic mouse" points to /dev/input/mice, and protocol = ps/2.
I've also changed the protocol of the 2 instances of the mouse in XF86Config-4 to just about every permutation of busmouse and ps/2.
What am I doing wrong? What am I missing? Thanks in adnavce for any info!
David
