Adam,
I accidentally deleted your reply to my suggestions so I'm doing
this from memory, so excuse if I suggest something you've already
tried.
You mentioned that you'd not noticed a conflict. I rebooted with
``-c'' to check exactly what my config screen shows.
----Active Drivers--------------- 2 Conflicts ------
[snipped]
Input:
PS/2 Mouse CONF psm0 12 0x60
Syscons console driver CONF sc0 1 0x60
and when PS/2 Mouse is selected, at the bottom of the screen it
shows:
Port Address : 0x60 Conflict Allowed
IRQ : 12
IIRC you said that the probe returned ``psm0: Not found at....''.
It isn't disabled in the BIOS is it?. Do you have a PS/2 keyboard
as well? I don't know if they cause conflicts (e.g. sharing a port
with the mouse) as my kbd is the old 5-pin DIN type.
The only other thing I can think of, which isn't going to be much
help I'm afraid, is that it's because it's a Compaq, proprietry
design and all that.
