Bug#169427: xserver-xfree86: Applies for "autodetecting" USB/PS2 mouse setup too, but only on boot
Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.2.1-3
Followup-For: Bug #169427
Hi
Monday I got a logitech optical USB/PS2 mouse, and used it on PS2.
Just to try out USB in linux I set it up on USB afterwards, and changed
my XF86Config-4 to try to use both devices (psaux and input/mice), X11
would just take the one(s) that are present. This worked perfectly when
testing by ^-M-<backspace> -ing wdm after editing the config, but
thuesday morning, I couldn't type anything anymore in wdm, changing
console and killing X didn't work either, sysrq to the resque.
Note that it worked when disabling wdm's init script, booting, logging
in as root and starting the init script then. This really puzzles me,
since it indicates that this can't have anything to do with
MouseOpenFail.
I knew of this issue, since tpo hangs in the same IRC channel as /me,
and thus tried with AllowMouseOpenFail enabled and really, now the
keyboard worked.
Maybe this provides some nice test case.
