My mouse is: PM: Adding info for usb:2-2 input: USB HID v1.10 Mouse [Logitech USB Receiver] on usb-0000:00:10.0-2 My keyboard is: PM: Adding info for usb:2-1 input: USB HID v1.00 Keyboard [NOVATEK Keyboard NT6881] on usb-0000:00:10.0-1 PM: Adding info for usb:2-1:0 input: USB HID v1.00 Mouse [NOVATEK Keyboard NT6881] on usb-0000:00:10.0-1 PM: Adding info for usb:2-1:1 As you can see the kernel thinks it's also a mouse, which it definitely is not. I've previously posted this to LKML somewhere, and my impressions were that people don't think it's a bug, since some other model of that keyboard worked together with a mouse somehow. Perhaps that's true, but I do not have a second mouse. The kernel thinks I do, and switching the keyboard and the mouse usb hubs results in mouse devices reordering and X not working with the proper mouse (attempting to use the keyboard as mouse, which apparently does not work). - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
