That's a very interesting explanation, and in fact, after removing
the /dev/psaux input device section, it works correctly.
The thing is that, no, i didn't notice the mouse being twice as fast as
it should be, because it is a newly installed laptop, and i was using
most of the time the touchpad, which now i removed one device is too
slow :-/
So now, there's the problem : I made the installation using the sarge
cd, and using the 2.6 install kernel, which means that even when you
install a 2.6 kernel, XFree does its configuration for both.
May i close the current bug and file a new one about that or may we just
retitle this bug ?
That could be a good thing to add to the XSF FAQ...
