Mouse dind't work ...
Hello,
I bought this tastatur (Cherry G81-3000) [This tastatur has the old IBM standard so the layout has no windows grope] and it works perfect with a DIN to PS/2 adapter.
Furthermore I got a old mouse with only two gropes and also it is a "ball mouse".
The mouse has a PS/2 connection, but my mainboard has only one PS/2 slot so I bought a PS/2 to USB.
The problem is, that the mouse isn't working ...
I tried to use the mouse without the adapter but it didn't work also.
Does someone has a advice for me?
Thanks.
Do you know for a fact that the rodent works? Open a terminal and inputtail -f -n0 /var/log/syslogNow do you get any output when you plug it in/out?
Yes this: (First I output my mouse that work, then i plug the new mouse on, test it and after this put the working mouse again in)
[CODE]
tail -f -n0 /var/log/syslog

You didn't say whether you know that thing works.
Looks like it's suggested that modprobe -r ehci_hcdmight help.
Apparently it's a hardware problem. Note that this will retard all your USB port traffic from 2.0 to 1.x making them slower.
Sry for this post ...
I testet the mouse now on a other computer and there it doesn't work too.
So the problem should be on the mouse.
Thank you for your help.
Either a USB mouse or a PS/2 mouse would cost less than an adapter ... anyway, get plenty of spares.
