AFAICS serial mice still not work automatically like in Windows 95 or
Mandriva etc. So still valid after 8 years.

I started to comment that Ubuntu 12.10 doesn't autodetect my paper tape
reader and punch, but decided that's too snarky (plus I don't really use
them). It probably doesn't autodetect Hollerith card readers, either.

It's possible I may no longer own the systems I previously used to test

Thank you for posting this issue.
Does this occur in Lucid?
FYI, Mandriva is under humongous structural difficulty as per:

May want to consider changing distros to... Ubuntu! ;)

Come on! I am running Lubuntu 10.04 and still my serial mouse is not
recognized! I have to manually edit xorg.conf and restart X and it
works. But what about people who have old computers and don't know how
to use terminal?

It should be obvious to all by now that the powers that be are not interested
in this bug;
it has been open for nearly six years now, and nothing has been done, in spite
of numerous calls to see how the good people at Mandriva manage to do it, and
have managed it ever since I first used
Isn't this all the kernel issue, not Xorg one? IMHO the kernel should support
the serial mice as it supports PS/2 mice.
I tested my COM mouse on Windows, and when i press search for new hardware
button, it just autodetects it. I don't even have to move the mouse. And, as i
experimented with my
The problem is not that the serial mouse does not work, but that it need
to be configured to work.
And when installing Ubuntu we do not get a chance to configure it,
unlike what some other distributions (Mandriva, PCLinuxOS etc) do: if
they do not detect a PS2 or USB mouse, they go into mouse
Yes, HAL is dropped in Lucid so the fdi file technique is not relevant
anymore. Instead, we have incorporated an xorg.conf.d snippets system,
whereby you will configure things like this by dropping a file with the
serial mouse snippet (like the ones in comments #12 or #49) into your
Just to add, there are those of us who use special pointing devices
(myself included), such as for the handicapped or special medical needs
or in specific locations such as a shop floor where a mouse would not
work because of environmental issues (dirt, space, etc.). Some of these

I agree completely and I don't use Ubuntu and/or Linux anymore. I return

FYI, Red Hat has a mouse config utility that handles serial mice:
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/install-
guide/s1-mouseconfig.html
Also, Mandriva handles a serial mouse, but appears to also be having
issues now which would indicate it's an xorg problem in general:

I solved problem changing HAL configuration. I modified the file
/usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-x11-input.fdi in Ubuntu 9.10
changing the mouse configuration section with these lines:
match key=info.capabilities contains=input.mouse
merge key=input.device

Xubuntu 9.04 Live CD, and even after installation.
Mouse on Com port - does not autodetected. Event after changing
configuration according to
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SerialMouseHowto - no effect. Still
nonfunctional. USB and PS/2 mouses work fine.
My hardware:
Mouse: A4tech SWW-25
Even going back and carefully booting 9.04 with the secret
mouse/device=/dev/ttyS0 boot parameters did no good. Trying to
navigate 9.04 desktop using kbd with no mouse was cute for a couple
minutes, got frustrating fast -- did not find any way to activate serial
