Hi,<br>
<br>
I have a problem with xorg not detecting properly my mouse.<br>
I am running F11 on a ps3 and the mouse is a cordless keyboard+mouse connected via USB.<br>
<br>
If I boo tin runlevel 3, then (in text mode) I can see the cursor moving when I move the mouse (so<br>
to say it works).<br>
In F10 everything worked properly.<br>
If I plug in a separate USB mouse, it works.<br>
<br>
Now when xorg boots I can see the following error<br>
<br>
(EE) Logitech USB Receiver Unable to query/initialize Synaptics hardware.<br>
(EE) PreInit failed for input device "Logitech USB Receiver"<br>
(EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (8)<br>
<br>
These are the available input on the system<br>
<br>

I think the last one is the correct one (the 2nd being the beyboard).<br>
How can I improve the error message? "Logitech USB Receiver" is the name of both the keyboard and<br>
mouse. Maybe xorg default mixes them?<br>
How can I tweak the default xorg.conf?<br>
<font color="#888888"></font><br></blockquote></div><br></div></div>Just a releated "me too" but in my case the mouse (usb) is not detected at all. Unplugging and replugging it in fixes the problem. It probably doesn't get detected 50-60% of the time. It doesn't appear to just be a mouse problem though. I ran the LXDE remix on my EEEPC and the same thing happened with the touch pad. Reloading Xorg fixed it.<font color="#888888"></font><br>
