Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.91.1i Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This is the second time I've had this happen, so maybe it's not a complete fluke. I walked away from my computer for a while, and when I came back, my mouse didn't work. I'm running X using sysmouse and a Mouse Systems PS/2 optical mouse, and it was just dead.. no movement, no buttons. Last time this happened (about two weeks ago), I killed moused and restarted it and it worked again - sort of.. about half of the button presses were being dropped, and movement was very sluggish, so I rebooted. This time, moused wouldn't restart: moused: Unable to open /dev/psm0: Input/output error I tried again: moused: Unable to open /dev/psm0: Device not configured I'm using "moused -p /dev/psm0 -t auto". The following has appeared in dmesg output: psm0: failed to disable the device (psmclose). psm0: failed to get status (psmclose). psm0: failed to enable the device (doopen). I will be doing a make world tonight, so maybe this problem won't happen in the new architecture. -- Christopher Masto Director of Operations NetMonger Communications chris@netmonger.net info@netmonger.net http://www.netmonger.net "Good tools allow users to do stupid things." -- Clay Shirky To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
