Bug#169427: xserver-xfree86: Applies for autodetecting USB/PS2 mouse setup too, but only on boot
Package: xserver-xfree86 Version: 4.2.1-3 Followup-For: Bug #169427 Hi Monday I got a logitech optical USB/PS2 mouse, and used it on PS2. Just to try out USB in linux I set it up on USB afterwards, and changed my XF86Config-4 to try to use both devices (psaux and input/mice), X11 would just take the one(s) that are present. This worked perfectly when testing by ^-M-backspace -ing wdm after editing the config, but thuesday morning, I couldn't type anything anymore in wdm, changing console and killing X didn't work either, sysrq to the resque. Note that it worked when disabling wdm's init script, booting, logging in as root and starting the init script then. This really puzzles me, since it indicates that this can't have anything to do with MouseOpenFail. I knew of this issue, since tpo hangs in the same IRC channel as /me, and thus tried with AllowMouseOpenFail enabled and really, now the keyboard worked. Maybe this provides some nice test case. -- Package-specific info: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Matrox Graphics, Inc.
