After running hwbrowser through the Start Here->System Settings->Hardware Browser, my mouse (Microsoft Intellimouse) froze and remained frozen even after restarting X. I had to reboot to get it working again. My mouse entry from XF86Config: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "no" EndSection
hwbrowser no longer probes for mice at startup.
