Re: impotent mouse; was /etc/X11/xorg.conf in Squeeze

[peasthope@shaw.ca]

These lines in /var/log/Xorg.0.log refer to the mouse.
Presumeably, the 2nd to last line, "(II) PS/2 Generic Mouse: Close",
is the X way of saying that mouse configuration finished 
successfully.  Can anyone with a working mouse cite a problem?

Thanks,        ... Peter E.
