Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg
On the update from 8.04 to 8.10 my mouse scroll wheel stopped working.
When I had a look at xorg.conf, the lines about InputDevices were
commented out by update-manager, with a note about HAL providing this
information now. I tried to reconfigure xserver-xorg using dpkg-
reconfigure with -plow, but this didn't allow me to choose anything
about the mouse. After two runs of dpkg-reconfigure, the section about
display resolutions was gone as well, and the X server started in
640*480 after log out. After copying back the xorg.conf-dist-upgrade,
everything works fine again.
My system is an old Sony laptop, Vaio PCG-VX71P, with Intel chipset
graphics and a touchpad with integrated scroll wheel.
