Subject: 2.6.0-test11 ps2 mouse giving corrupt data?
Date: Fri, 12 Dec 2003 12:36:38 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200312121236.38692.andrew@walrond.org> (raw)
I have just switched from l2.4 to 2.6 on my thinkpad, and the mouse does
something wierd when I boot into x (kde)
startx, then wait for everything to load, then move mouse. Mouse goes crazy,
menus pop up everywhere as though I were pressing buttons, and after about 3
seconds, it all settles down and works perfectly.
So whats causing this? I 've read about the mouse detection stuff in recent
2.6 giving incorrect resolutions and stuff, but thats doesn't apply here. Its
getting a load of bad data.
A buffer_len load of crud is being provided before the real stuff arrives
perhaps?

PS For 'mouse' read 'Little Red Nipple' which AFAIK is just a ps2 mouse as far
as linux is concerned. Worked for 2.4 anyway.
