Does the mouse work if you try starting X with /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d |
| 50 |
empty? Or maybe re-emerge xf86-input-evdev, -synaptics, -mouse? |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
You should be able to check whether your kernel recognizes your mouse |
| 53 |
with something like: |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
~ $ grep -ie mouse -e synaptics -e touch /proc/bus/input/devices |
| 56 |
N: Name="SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad" |
| 57 |
H: Handlers=mouse0 event5 |
| 58 |
N: Name="USB Optical Mouse" |
| 59 |
H: Handlers=mouse1 event7 |
| 60 |
|
| 61 |
Though I would think it's more likely a problem with upgrading your X |
| 62 |
packages. The driver packages all need to be upgraded after the |
| 63 |
server itself, and while I've always seen emerge get this right, I'm |
| 64 |
not sure whether that's deliberate or a coincidence. |
