Hi there!
don't wanna bother anyone but I couldn't find any bugzilla where to submit my
issue.
I email you because I often get GPM driving mad as follows:
* I'm logging into a virtual console after switching from X
* I'm using the mouse in this virtual console.
* I switch to another virtual console
* I move the mouse and the cursor gets crazy
Here is the message I catched:
"
*** err [mice.c(1883)]: imps2: PS/2 mouse failed setup, continuing...
*** err [mice.c(1883)]: imps2: PS/2 mouse failed setup, continuing...
"
The work around I use is to restart the GPM related init script.
Here is my config:
* I use a USB wireless mouse that I plug to the psaux port with an adaptator
delivered by the constructor (Logitech).
* I configured GPM (version 1.20.1) with the IntelliMousePS2 support (imps2)
* I use frame buffer for my console display (linux kernel 2.4.22)
* At last, I use XFree86 4.3.0
Hope my remarks will be helpful.
If you need some more info, feel free to ask me.
Bon courage, Julien
