From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20020830 Description of problem: I4 ve got simple 3 Button PS/2 mouse. The mouse was detected during installation of RH8. During the first reboot (after installation) kudzu displays that there is no generic PS/2 mouse available and asks me to keep configuration / remove configuration / ignore. To make it clear: I tried every possibility - none of them caused any action. So when I tried to log in, the mouse AND the keyboard freezes. I tired to plug in several PS/2 mouses but the result is the same. Here is a desciption what I4 ve already tired. - tried to take a look at /proc/pci to see if IRQ 12 (that is assigned to a PS/2 mouse by default) is already used -> it4 s not - tried to take a look at /proc/isapnp to see if IRQ 12 is already used -> that4 s what I4 ve found: ... Logical device 3 'ESS0002:Unknown' Compatible device PNP0600 Device is active Active port 0x168,0x36e Active IRQ 12 [0x2] Resources 0 ... So I guess that there is a conflict with that sound card. It is a ESS ES1868 Plug and Play AudioDrive. Perhaps anyone could tell me how to fix that issue Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.boot into system 2.kudzu starts 3.ps/2 mouse is not detected Actual Results: X freezes, Mouse and Keyboard do not work Expected Results: X should work Additional info:
The kernel should not be assigning IRQ 12 to anything with the PnP code, almost surely.
