Hi,

after upgrading from Sarge to Etch, the new xorg does not recognize my
USB mouse. The touch-pad of my laptop works fine.

The mouse is found by the kernel, these are the entries in
/var/log/messages:

kernel: usb 1-1: USB disconnect, address 2
kernel: usb 1-1: new low speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address

In /etc/X11/xorg.conf I have the settings:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "USB Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Buttons" "5"
EndSection

Any ideas what might be wrong?

What is the output of

ls -l /dev/input/by-id/

Do you see output (codes) scrolling by if you run (as root)

cat /dev/input/mice | hd

and you move the mouse? (CTRL+C to exit)
