I've just come from version 12 to 12.2 and I'm suddenly having issues with a basic PS/2 mouse. I've been searching for over two hours and I've made multiple adjustments to xorg.conf with no luck. Apparently, I'm more of a newbie than I thought.Would someone be so kind as to give me a hand?
View 4 RepliesI have myself a perfectly working slackware 13.1 64 on my pc (well, tbh I gotta solve some ati and kde compose issues),BUTI can get no joy when trying to make it work in friend's pc.The slackware 13.1 32 install runs ok. I can even log in and run a init 4 session on kde.But with no apparent reason hard crashes (completely frozen system) hit the system aleatory (never last more than 5 minutes)

lspci output:
0c:00.0 Network controller: Intel ... PRO/wireless 4965 AG or AGN [Kedron] Network Connection (rev 61)
lsmod output (relavent line):
cfg80211 33680 3 iwlagn, iwlcore, mac80211
iwconfig shows wlan0 up and running, and iwlist scanning shows the router. I used to be able to just run dhcpcd wlan0 and connect, but now I get a
"timed out waiting for a valid DHCP server response"
Same deal running /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf (which might be the new way Slack connects to things).
Not sure if it's important, but I have a little indicator light on my laptop that tells me if wireless is running. Before I try dhcpcd, the light is on. After it times out, the light goes out and I have to redo everything (ifconfig wlan0 up etc....) in order to get the light back on.
I am getting a problem to run hugin 2010.2.0 in Slackware 13.1. After I installed all require programs (I hope that), I run hugin, but the error message show that:

and your program used 2.8 (no debug,Unicode,compiler with C++ ABI 1002,wx containers,compatible with 2.4,compatible with 2.6)." Is there anyone know how to fix this problem?
I have just reinstalled slackware on my old p4 3.2 box clean install formatted hard drive no other packages installed.is there something seriously changed from slack 10 to slack 13.1 ?? or do i suffer from C.R.S ( cant remember s***)
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am playing with SalixOS which is supposed to be entirely compatible with Slack. I've never put Slack proper on this laptop. It's run Ubuntu and Mandriva both and the volume wheel always works. It does not seem to be recognized in Salix. I figure the fix will be the same in Salix as Slackware so I'm asking here. The laptop is an A205 Toshiba Satellite.

i have tried to post this in several Ubuntu forums, but no answers so far.when i first started the Ubuntu 11.04, it said "..missing graphics..." something and that it would start in classic mode.

View 8 Replies View RelatedA client of mine brought a Dell Inspiron 1501 laptop with Debian Lenny + KDE3.5 installed.The problem is that USB mouse won't work, no matter which USB port is used. If I move the mouse, after 5-6 seconds, the arrow moves a bit and that's all. We have tried 3 different mice; one is mine which works flawlessly on my Linux installation (btw: the laptop has its OS installed by me)USB keyboard works with no issues.I have tried the following but with no results:
1. upgraded BIOS
2. recompiled kernel
3. commented the "blacklist usbmouse" in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist so it could load the old driver
4. as last resolt I also disabled USB legacy support in BIOS
PS: The OS will not be upgraded to Squeeze because she is not staying in the country and later support for unpleasant suprises is not possible.
I just installed ubuntu on PS3 and my wireless mouse will not work, I have 2 sets of keyboard mouse combos and both the mouses wont work on the ps3 but will on the desktop. Is there a way I can get my mouse to work?? I have a usb mouse that works but Its a pain to use and I cant sit right away from the tv.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm having a pretty small problem, but a pretty weird one.I created an account on my desktop for my 4-year old. But my regular USB mouse was a bit large for his little hands. So, I grabbed the little mouse I use for my laptop for him to use.Problem is, the small USB mouse does not work in his account. It can move the pointer, but clicking has unpredictable results.The small USB mouse works fine in my account. My regular mouse worked fine in his account, just like it works for everyone else.His user account clearly does not have some privilege that is needed for the small mouse to work, but is not needed for the other mouse.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have recently upgraded to and then reinstalled Maverick (retaining the home directory). After the reinstall the mouse stopped working. It's not a hardware issue as the mouse works fine during the live CD installation. I have tried both a serial and a USB mouse. I have tried reinstalling a couple of times too.
I think I've had this issue before in a previous version but can't remember how I solved it.
I have been using Ubuntu for about 2 years now, and am by no means an expert. As a result I'm sure you will need more information but am unsure of what information that is or how to get it.
my mouse touch pad dose not work it wont let me click anything if i touch it is there any way to solve this problem?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI just installed Ubuntu 9.04 on an old Compaq Deskpro with PS/2 ports for the mouse and keyboard. My original mouse is old and has no scroll wheel, so I purchased a new Logitech Optical Mouse with USB. I purchased a PS/2-to-USB converter so that I could plug it in to the PS/2 port. After booting up, the mouse does not work at all. While the computer is on, I can unplug the new mouse and plug in the old one, and the old one will work. But the old one is close to failing, and I need to get a new mouse to work.The configuration file /etc/X11/xorg.conf did not have a mouse configured, so I tried adding the following code to it:
Code: Section "InputDevice"
Identifier"Configured Mouse"
Driver"mouse"

I tried my COM mouse KM-203S on Windows, it works out of the box. Now i want to make it work on linux. But the problem is that mdetect doesn't recognize it, and whatever protocol i select in inputattach, the cursor jumps unpredictably when i move the mouse. How can i get the parameters for this mouse - maybe baudrate, etc.? Or maybe i'm doing something totally wrong?Here's mdetect output (i moved the mouse while mdetect was working) on 300 8N1 mode (set by minicom):

I've just installed CentOS-5.4 on an AMD64 box, dual boot with Windows 7 64, if that matters. At first I could not get the GUI to display at all, but fixed that using system-config-display. During installation, the keyboard (HP bluetooth set with mouse) worked fine in the GUI, but mouse did not. Now when it loads the GUI interface after booting, neither the keyboard or the mouse will work at all, therefore I can't navigate anywhere. I have done the yum update already as well, from init 3, but they still are not working. what I should do next, where to check?

View 6 Replies View RelatedMy hardware is a Gateway LT2104u netbook.Bought it today, took it out the box and installed the netbook version of Ubuntu.Now here is the problem.The touchpad works fine. I am able to move the mouse all over the screen, the keyboard works find too. The problem is with the mouse click. The clicks are recognized when I am in the 'overview screen'. For example I can click on firefox and it opens. However once firefox is open it does not respond to any clicks. Even clicks to close firefox.
I push Alt+f4 to close the program and then I can click into any other (or the original) programs, but once inside the problem replicates.The problem was present in the 'live cd' during install as well.Does anybody know what might cause this? The whole netbook is useless at this point since I need to click to pretty much do anything in most applications (the Terminal program is one of the few exceptions )
without any warning, mouse clicks stopped having any effect. I can move the cursor without a problem. No apps are frozen and I can type at the command line. But mouse clicks have no effect. The same mouse was working fine before and it works fine in Windows. When I look in /var/log/messages, I see:ondemand governor failed, too long transition latency of HWfallback to performance governor [OK]I don't know if this is significant or not. The mouse is connected via USB. I'm running Lucid Lynx with all of the latest updates.

When starting a program, the mouse may randomly not work within that program but does work outside of it, or vice-versa. For instance, when starting the text editor, the OS may not recognize mouse clicks inside the program (within the text editing portion, within the text editors menu bar etc.), but it does recognize mouse clicks outside the program (like clicking on the battery icon for battery status). This could also be reversed, where the OS only recognizes mouse clicks within the program but none externally (including the top status bar where the menu options, battery status, and clock are).
IF the mouse is not working inside the program and I click somewhere externally (like the battery status), this seems to temporarily fix the problem and allow clicking inside the program. However, this seems to switch the problem to where I can no longer click externally. This seems to be the only method of switching which area is selectable by mouse, as I have not found a reverse process. This forces me to close the program using Ctrl + Q instead of being able to click out, because the close button is in the top status bar. This seems to happen pretty much universally. If the program is closed, then I can again click any thing on the main screen, including the top status bar.
I am currently running the netbook without the power supply plugged in. I will repost later when the power supply is connected to see if it makes a difference. At first I thought the netbook was locked up, but the mouse still moves and if the cursor is active in a text editing area it still responds to keystrokes. It's not a disasterous bug, but it's annoying.
While Login into ubuntu, open firefox for sometime, my left mouse button usually cannot work, while right button is OK and keyboard is also OK. Mouse pointer can be moved,however left click shows no reaction(when i move the mouse pointer to some certain icon, the icon can be highlighted just as usual but left click still shows no reaction).
I doubted this may be firefox's problem, but when I kill firefox-bin and firefox process through the terminal(keyboard is ok and i can use ALT+F2 to enter gnome-terminal), Left mouse button still cannot work. And then I have to Ctrl+Alt+Delete and reboot the system. My ubuntu is 10.10, updated several days ago(this problem has been existed before the update)
