Still have the no mouse curser movement on xfce desktop. Adding Option "AllowEmptyInput" "Off" statement to ServerLayout section of /etc/X11/xorg.conf got the mouse curser moving. But I still get the the mouse error messages in the X11 log. {EE) xf86OpenSerial: Cannot open device /dev/psm0 Device busy. (EE) PS/2 Mouse: cannot open input device (EE) PreInit failed for input device "PS/2 Mouse" (EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed Is there some other correct solution? I am receiving massive flooding of the Log file: "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" with the follow messages Xlib: extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":0.0". Xlib: extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display ":0.0" I found a post in the questions archives where the person was saying these messages are meaningless and can be ignored. It's not a problem the ignore them, but my log get massive in size and consumes my free disk space. I know i can configure to rotate the log at a given size. But that is not the solution. I need to know how to stop these messages from being issued in the first place.
