I'm having similar problems with an HP Pavilian dv5220, and with a
bluetooth mouse dongle plugged into the right side usb port it works
just fine. What I'd like to do is totally disable that synaptics pad
as its way too sensitive, making it impossible to type more than a line
or 2
Enable the proper USB options, point X/GPM to /dev/input/mouse1 - or
whatever.
Please describe how to do this and it will be done forthwith.
Actually - I think it should be stock.
Try cat /dev/input/mouse0 - and moving the mouse/trackpad. if this
generates random text, then you're done.
/dev/input/mice is a fake device that globs all the mice in the system
together.
/dev/input/mouse[n] is the nth mouse on the system.
Also - you can just go to device drivers/input - and disable the ps/2
mouse driver.
Set up X and GPM to use /dev/input/mouse1 - if this is your USB mouse,
and it just works.
