Description William Laxson 2005-09-26 06:27:11 UTC

Before upgrade all system components working fine.

Performed automatic upgrade from 9.1 to 10 RC1.  After CD1 installation complete
and reboot, ps2 mouse (Microsoft 2 button) on ps2 mouse port did not work.  
Completed installation with keyboard shortcuts, then used YAST via keyboard
shortcuts to probe mouse configuration.  YAST reports no mouse selected. 
Selected PS2 mouse from list and saved and restarted GUI, and mouse started
working correctly once again.

Please attach the complete /var/log/YaST2 directory and hwinfo.

Comment 2 Steffen Winterfeldt 2005-09-26 14:29:26 UTC

Sorry, but yast does the update. There were some major changes meanwhile, like 
xfree->xorg and static /dev -> udev & hotplug. No idea how this affects 
updates. 
 
You better start practicing for the sles9 -> sles10 move. :-)

Comment 3 Michael Radziej 2005-09-26 14:47:23 UTC

Hmm, then I hope the yast2-update maintainer is the right one ;-)

Mouse is Marcus's playground.

To know what happened here I need the original X11 configuration file 
from your 9.1 installation. Without this information I cannot do much

Comment 9 Stefan Nordhausen 2005-10-11 20:31:53 UTC

Also had a dead mouse (USB Logitech) after update from 9.2 to 10.0 final.
Marcus, exactly which files from the original config do you need? I still have a
complete image of the original partition, so that wouldn't be a problem for me.

Comment 10 Marcus Schaefer 2005-10-12 10:37:22 UTC

cool, in that case please provide the old configuration from your partition 
which is named /etc/X11/XF86Config and the new file of your current  
configuration which has been relinked to /etc/X11/xorg.conf 
 
You should know that my code isn't called in case of update so I assume 
some kind of post install scripts... well let's compare the files 
 
Thanks

Comment 11 Stefan Nordhausen 2005-10-12 16:05:31 UTC

Ok.... I think I'll need to buy a new backup-device. *grrr* But good I found out
before it is too late.

Fortunately, the system itself made backup copies of XF86Config in 2004, which
match the backup copies it must have made during update. So the data is not
lost. I'll attach both versions.

Thanks, I added an update path to fix that problem
