Hi Marc,
Sorry about the delay but it took some time to find out (I'm pretty new
to the company). It appears we were running version 4.2 before.

I work for uses Linux (a custom version) running the 2.4.24 kernel

that it couldn't find the core pointer. However, since we've
upgraded to 4.5.0 this behaviour no longer occurs - even with the
"AllowMouseOpenFail" server flag explicitly set to "false".
Given the fact that my company remotely manages internet kiosks, we
want to be able to detect if a mouse is not connected since this
usually indicates faulty hardware. Is it still possible to prevent
X from starting if there is no mouse attached or has this option
been removed? I would appreciate any help since I've not been able
to find anything in the docs or via searching the internet.
This is likely a consequence of auto-configuration. I'll have a
look. You wouldn't happen to have a mouse-less log, would you?
Thanks for you reply. I've included a mouse-less log as requested as
well as the configuration file.
Thanks.
You say you upgraded to 4.5.0. From what version?
Marc.
