system doesn't detect mouse [ broken AUX IRQ delivery test ]

[digitall2000]

the mouse works from the liveCD

i posted in desktop env because i thought it was an X problem
but i am not getting any response from 'cat'ing my /dev/input

take a look here:
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-3930342.html#3930342

thanks for any and all help

lance

i used genkernel could i have missed something in the kernel config?
if so where should i look?
and where can i look at the log of the boot sequence?

in dmesg on another box it says
serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq1
serio: i8042 AUX port at 0x60,0x64 irq12
this box says only.
serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq1

any ideas what could be wrong?

Do you have input_devices_mouse in your make.conf ?

2 questions:

what kind of mouse? name and type of interface would help.

can we see a full dmesg?

thanks

i don't know i need to look into that now

i have tried 2 different generic wheel mice
both where recognized by the liveCD
and work on different boxes

ok
this system has been trouble
not quite finished installing
have the basic system and X - short the mouse

so i just booted form the liveCD again
the mouse(s) work from links2

so all i can think of, because of the missing AUX port in my
dmesg, is that inadvertently turned off the port at compile time

now i will check my make.conf.

lance

[digitall2000]

recompiled the kernel i thought it was an input device switch not thrown
but 6 hours later no luck

there is still the difference between this box and the one that works

in dmesg on another box it says
serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq1
serio: i8042 AUX port at 0x60,0x64 irq12
this box says only.
serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq1


and the fact that the mouse works booting from the liveCD

help i'm lost

lance

[whig]

This won't help you, but I share the pain. My other (old) PC over there was going just fine on kernel 2.6.18. I got around to updating it to 2.6.20 and then the ps2 mouse stopped being readable (appears in dmesg though). Go back to 2.6.18 and it works again. A usb mouse works just fine on any kernel. I've searched the web, a small few have the same problem, even in gentoo's bugzilla but that one was fixed. I can only presume I have this problem because I roll my own kernels

[digitall2000]

i am using genkernel
and throwing in what i think may help

anybody know what kernel and what the setup set up for the liveCD is
or how and what i should compare on this system and the liveCD

because the damn mouse works on the liveCD

lance

[whig]

To see if your problem is my problem, type "uname -r" to get the kernel version on both your installed system and livecd.

edit: make that a "might"

[digitall2000]

ok i am back

this is the situation i am faced with now
there are two COMPAQ - AMD K-6
one pentium III coppermine
all running 2.6.19-gentoo-r5

on the pentium the mouse works fine

i have no mouse on both of the COMPAQs
no serio: second port in dmesg
nothing set to use irq 12

in dmesg on the pentium box it says
serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq1
serio: i8042 AUX port at 0x60,0x64 irq12

on both COMPAQs it says only.
serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq1

on the two COMPAQs the mouse works fine from the liveCD

uname -r
on liveCD 2.6.17-gentoo-r7
my kernels 2.6.19-gentoo-r5

hell
lance

[whig]

The package page mentions gentoo-sources-2.6.17-r8 is available, could you try emerging that version?

[digitall2000]

but why would it work on the pentium and not the amd

i will do it but i don't have much time right
i am using genkernel how do i throw these sources at that

[whig]

I don't know why it doesn't always work, this is the info gathering phase. Portage will bring down the sources for the requested version automatically.

[digitall2000]

i am really new to this, so

how do i emerge the specific kernel?
will it over write my current kernel?
how do i use genkernel to build the new kernel?

lance

[whig]

I roll my own kernels, but at a guess it would be "emerge =gentoo-sources-2.6.17-r8". On an old pc that would probably take a long long time I'm unsure whether it would overwrite; my custom kernels are happy side by side. See http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/genkernel.xml

If you have a spare or borrowable usb mouse try it, much quicker than the above.

[digitall2000]

well this is going to be an ftp box another is a gateway router
and yet another is a web server all attached to a kvm switch
so i really need to get this to work with a ps2 mouse

other and i also have had multiple kernels on a box
that was two years ago and i can roll my own but i
will have to relearn that

what about pulling the kernel and modules and what
ever else is needed from the liveCD?

lance

[whig]

[digitall2000]

i would rather do as you would like
so i am reading up on that tonight
i also just found a doc on pulling the
kernel from the liveCD. so we shall
keep trying..

this post has a fair amount of views
i wish a developer would step in

lance

[digitall2000]

well it does seem that there is some bug
directly related to this i dunno but it does
have to do with drivers/input/serio/i8042.c

nothing in home yet
just my portage and stage3 tarballs in /extra

transfer the /usr to my hda temoparily
fdisk that drive to one space transfer /usr back
it will be 4 gig is that enough space
reset my fstab and reboot

how do i check if the copy is the same as the original?

then reemerge the lower gentoo-sources

oh by the way i am going to do
2.6.17-r8
2.6.18-r6

[whig]

I'm not sure how portage would react to /usr/src/ being on /extra but you could try it.. a quicker fix than moving all of /usr, use the below with caution...

[digitall2000]

extra is on the full disk same partition size as /usr

lance

[digitall2000]

i did cp -dpR /usr/* /usrcopy it just finished

does portage use a bunch of temp space then clean it up?

lance

[whig]

Same disk, different partition (partition that has 734 megs free)

[digitall2000]

but i want to flatten that disk out to one partition for /usr
.
