Description Sean Bruno 2004-07-16 16:53:26 UTC

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040510

Description of problem:
If I have an FC2 box on a belkin KVM, switching from to a different
port causes the mouse to behave erratically.

In FC1, bouncing to a console(CTRL-ALT-F1) and back to X(CTRL-ALT-F7)
resolved my mouse issues.

But, now I have to physically disconeect the PS2 mouse from the belkin
KVM and reonnect it to get the mouse to work correctly.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xorg6.7.0-5

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Connect an FC2 box to any Belkin KVM
2.  Switch off of your FC2 box and Back again
3.  Mouse behaves erratically until you disconnect/reconnect your PS2
mouse
    

Actual Results:  The mouse will bounce all over the screen when moved.

Expected Results:  Mouse behaves normally

Additional info:

I am using an MS Wheel Mouse with the Belkin.  When I reonnect the
mouse to get it to work again, the wheel-up acts like a "right-click"
until I reboot, but this is minor compared to the behaviour when I
switch between ports

Duplicate of Bug #127431?

Comment 2 Kristian Høgsberg 2004-09-15 02:00:19 UTC
Yes, looks like bug #127431.  Please try a more recent kernel, as some
of these synchronization bugs have been fixed lately.
