Bug#443292: HAL configuration

[Fredrik Svensson <fred@ludd.ltu.se>]

Hi,

After reading
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12655
and
http://archive.netbsd.se/?ml=xorg&a=2007-11&m=5684763
and
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=446851

I found that

cp /usr/share/doc/hal/examples/10-x11-input.fdi 
/usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/

and restarting hal

/etc/init.d/hal restart

got my MX510 mouse working again :

(**) Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse: always reports core events
(II) Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse: Found 3 relative axes.
(II) Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse: Configuring as pointer.
(II) Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse: Found 8 mouse buttons
(II) Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse: Configured 11 mouse buttons.
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse" 
(type: MOUSE)
(**) Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse: 2 valuators.
(**) Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse: Configuring in Absolute mode.
(**) Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse: Registering 11 buttons.
(II) Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse: Init
(II) Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse: On

I am not sure if it this is the correct way for the future, but I am
happy to have a working mouse again.

I did not find so much information about this online, maybe someone
has more pointers ?
