4 Hello people
5
6 I just upgraded my kernel from 2.6.27-r7 to 2.6.27-r8, during this
7 process I decided to start over on my config, setting it up from scratch
8 instead of reusing the .config. I pretty much set the new kernel up like
9 the old one, except for a few things.
10
11 However, now my touchpad acts really strange from time to time, nothing
12 really specific, it's ONLY the touchpad, so i can connect an USB mouse,
13 but this is hardly an ideal solution.
14
15 The strangeness is that the mouse jumps all over the screen when I try
16 to move it, and clicks all over the place, making for really really
17 anoying stuff.
18
19 When the issue occurs the following shows up in
20 /var/log/everything/current (equivelant to /var/log/messages):
21
22 Feb 26 22:42:52 [kernel] [ 448.018056] psmouse.c: Mouse at
23 isa0060/serio1/input0 lost synchronization, throwing 2 bytes away.
24 Feb 26 22:42:54 [kernel] [ 450.061023] psmouse.c: failed to re-enable
25 mouse on isa0060/serio1
26 Feb 26 22:42:54 [kernel] [ 450.065731] psmouse.c: resync failed,
27 issuing reconnect request
28
29 I can apply any information needed, but didn't want this message to get
30 TOO long.
31
32 With hopes of help

36 anticipation.
