From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040115 Description of problem: I installed kernel-2.6.1-1.61 and rebooted. There were no errors during reboot. Upon starting up X the mouse failed to respond. Both PS/2 and USB mice were tested. However, none worked when X was started. Booting into kernel-2.4.22-1.2163 and then starting X did not replicate this behaviour and produced normal mouse activity. The only abnormal event was that kudzu continually decided that the mouse had been removed from the system and needed to be reconfigured when going from 2.4.22 to 2.6.1. Both Reconfiguring the mouse or ignoring the message yielded an unusable mouse. There do not appear to be any messages in the boot, kernel, and messages logs indicating that the mouse has failed. I have booted into previous RedHat/Fedora 2.6.1 kernels and did not observe this behaviour. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.1-1.61 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.boot into kernel-2.6.1-1.61 2.start X 3.fail to get a response from the mouse Actual Results: The mouse cursor would not move on the screen. Expected Results: The mouse should have worked normally. Additional info:
This is notabug!!!!! An upgrade of some inexplicit dependency resolved the problem. I sincerely appologize for the waste of time.
