Hello, Does anyone have ideas why unplugging my old PS/2 mouse and plugging in a new one would have caused my Linux system to reboot!? Nothing fancy in the change, except that my old one was possessed, randomly veering around the screen at the most inopportune times. Ode to dust and dog hair... ;^) I'm running 2.4.13-ac4 with Robert Love's preempt patch. There was NOTHING in the logs... It was more like a power hit than a crash, though none of my cables are loose. Fortunately with ext3, no data was lost.
