Ok, your original message wasn't clear to me. Many mice have a |
| 21 |
"two-stage" LED that goes dim after a few seconds (not completely off |
| 22 |
though). And I thought that "X" was a translation for the non-printing |
| 23 |
characters. |

Did you set CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2=y or =m? If =y, try rebuilding as a |
| 26 |
module. This would let you remove and reload the driver (rmmod psmouse; |
| 27 |
modprobe psmouse) to see what happens. |

Also, is this a real PS/2 mouse (not using a USB to PS/2 adapter), or do |
| 30 |
you use a KVM switch? |
