My mouse and my touchpah (HP Pavilion dv5078ea) work well. Perhaps you should look again at your xorg.conf.

In my xorg.conf there are two InputDevice sections: No disagreement with what you said, but just to fill in a couple of holes: /dev/input/mouse1 may be correct. Also check for /dev/input/event1 (which is what I use). Also both pointer devices need to be listed in your ServerLayout section. Something like: Section ServerLayout Identifier Default Screen 0 LCD 0 0 InputDevicetouchpad CorePointer InputDeviceusbmouse InputDevicekeyboard CoreKeyboard EndSection If you have more trouble, I suggest posting your xorg.conf. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
