ps2 mouse disabled after Suse 9.1 to 10 RC1 upgrade
Last modified: 2005-10-18 10:42:56 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. Whitebox PC: CPU: AMP Athlon Xp 2500+ Video: GE Force TI 4200 W/AGP 8X Main Memory 512 MB
Please attach the complete /var/log/YaST2 directory and hwinfo. See http://www.opensuse.org/Bug_Reporting_FAQ#YaST
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. :-)
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
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.
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
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
