 |
|
My new wireless usb mouse does not seem to work. The strange this is that my old wired optical usb mouse works fine. Here's what dmsg says when I plug in the new mouse.
| Code: | ohci_hcd 0000:00:0d.0: wakeup
usb 2-3: new low speed USB device using address 2
input: USB HID v1.10 Mouse [062a:0000] on usb-0000:00:0d.0-3

...but nothing works. If I unplug the new mouse and plug in my old wired mouse I get,
| Code: | ohci_hcd 0000:00:0d.0: wakeup
usb 2-3: new low speed USB device using address 3
input: USB HID v1.10 Mouse [Magic ball Mouse Magic ball Mouse] on usb-0000:00:0d.0-3

... and the old mouse works fine. Is there any difference between a wireless mouse and a wired mouse as far as the kernel is concerned? I'm confused. |

maybe there are two buttons called "connect" or something like that? one on the mouse and one on the receiver for the wireless signals.
I have had this problem with one of my logitech keyboards and pressing those buttons the same time fixed it. |
