[gentoo-user] Strange mouse movements
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hello people I just upgraded my kernel from 2.6.27-r7 to 2.6.27-r8, during this process I decided to start over on my config, setting it up from scratch instead of reusing the .config. I pretty much set the new kernel up like the old one, except for a few things. However, now my touchpad acts really strange from time to time, nothing really specific, it's ONLY the touchpad, so i can connect an USB mouse, but this is hardly an ideal solution. The strangeness is that the mouse jumps all over the screen when I try to move it, and clicks all over the place, making for really really anoying stuff. When the issue occurs the following shows up in /var/log/everything/current (equivelant to /var/log/messages): Feb 26 22:42:52 [kernel] [ 448.018056] psmouse.c: Mouse at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost synchronization, throwing 2 bytes away. Feb 26 22:42:54 [kernel] [ 450.061023] psmouse.c: failed to re-enable mouse on isa0060/serio1 Feb 26 22:42:54 [kernel] [ 450.065731] psmouse.c: resync failed, issuing reconnect request I can apply any information needed, but didn't want this message to get TOO long. With hopes of help - -- Morten 'T-Hawk' Holt In the joy of anticipation there's the anticipatory letdown of anticipating not anticipating anticipation of some future anticipation. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkmnEycACgkQ4U83l8z/woJInQCeIVk6YxNDFh/9dKitr+jZ8h10 v2wAnieZOjjADFlxtH8HSRVVGi03TDMu =gqNW -END PGP SIGNATURE- smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature

Annoying enough for me to blacklist the touchpad. Also, if I brushed it with my thumb my accident I would get about fifty '^[G' sequences dumped into Konsole. And all the problems just magically went away with 2.6.28 -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com

According to dmesg: [7.437975] input: ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse as /class/input/input4 I had that too. Really annoying. Annoying enough for me to blacklist the touchpad.

And all the problems just magically went away with 2.6.28 I guess I could try that, though 2.6.28 isn't marked as stable yet, this is hardly stable either ;) - -- Morten 'T-Hawk' Holt In the joy of anticipation there's the anticipatory letdown of anticipating not anticipating anticipation of some future anticipation. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkmnlOsACgkQ4U83l8z/woKnjQCfdCpRH9tloNFxte+jX/gwDvye 0kcAni5XUyqJP3uEFcJj39DewNnuPjge =Alih -END PGP SIGNATURE- smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature
