[SOLVED] mouse doesn't move...

[TheCoop]

I've got a very strange problem with my mouse. The mouse wheel works, the buttons work, but the cursor doesnt move when the mouse does. Heres the relevant parts of xorg.conf:

Code: Select all

Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier  "USB Mouse"
    Driver      "evdev"
   Option      "evBits"        "+1-2"
    Option      "keyBits"       "~272-287"
    Option      "relBits"       "~0-2 ~6 ~8"
EndSection

Trying adding

Code: Select all

Option      "Device" "/dev/psaux"

to your "Section "InputDevice" " in xorg.conf
(change psaux to your mouse dev)

does the mouse work under gpm?
