Description Sean Dilda 2000-11-04 14:32:05 UTC 
On my laptop with a builting trackpad, I temporarily added a USB mouse. 
Kudzu changed everything to use the USB mouse.  I then turned the machine
off, removed the USB mouse and turned it back on the next day.  Kudzu saw
that the USB mouse was gone, offered to remove the configs and I told it
to.  However, it didn't reconfigure everything for my trackpad.  So when it
booted gpm and X couldn't start because the /dev/mouse symlink was gone. 
Running mouseconfig by hand fixed it, but kudzu should probablly go ahead
and do this for the user.

This looks the same as bug 18862.
