I am experiencing frequent (twice in 4 boots) hangs on my PC, just after entering X. Sometimes there is no problem and the PC starts up fine and keeps working normally. It seems to happen during boot only. Hangs are: mouse first responds wildly, then stops working altogether as well as the keyboard. I compared diffs of /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old and /var/log/Xorg.0.log twice after hangs and noted these extra lines (with +) both times when boot was OK: enable montype: 1 +enable montype: 1 +(II) 3rd Button detected: disabling emulate3Button I have a Logitech PS/2 wheel mouse. As normally I found in my dmesg: mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /class/input/input0 input: PS2++ Logitech Wheel Mouse as /class/input/input1 input: Power Button (FF) as /class/input/input2 input: Power Button (CM) as /class/input/input3 I compile a Linus git-pulled kernel with a .config that I do not change often and normally works. It seems that kernel changes somewhere between May and December 2008 caused this, I didn't compile new kernels a lot in this period. After reboot I noted (suspected to be related): Sound signals processor Clock settings altered A possibly related issue is that sometimes (about once every month) my mouse doesn't work when entering X. (I have sent an email previously for this). cat /dev/input/mice doesn't give strange characters when moving my mouse I stored dmesg when there was trouble: twice dmesg contained: psmouse.c: Failed to enable mouse on isa0060/serio1 4 other times missing was: input: PS2++ Logitech Wheel Mouse as /class/input/input1 and instead: mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /class/input/input0 input: Power Button (FF) as /class/input/input1 input: Power Button (CM) as /class/input/input2 (in earlier dmesgs "/class" was "/devices/virtual". or /devices/platform/i8042/serio[10]/) Roel -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-input" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
