Hi , Mouse have a property that whatever character u send them it will send it back . I was trying to use this mechanism to find out whether the mouse responds there. And I got the below reply. Moreover If I do not move my mouse during startup I am getting Detected PS/2 mouse port Mouse timed out [1] Mouse timed out[1] in the kernel messages as well. If I move the mouse during bootup these messages do not come in the kernel messages. I don't know what's wrong.
