Trying out 2.5, I've got only a partially working mouse. The usb
mouse is fully functional, as are both sets of buttons on the
notebook. The mouse pad works, but the nib is ignored.

Of course, I only ever use the nib and only noticed that the pad was
working by accident.

I seem to recall a similar post some time back, but cannot find it in
my archives.

Any ideas?

I do need to reboot into 2.4 and clone my bk clone from the sbp2 disk
to the internal disk (ohci1394 is b0rked ATM) to see the .config I
ended up with....

The relevant X config is:

Section "ServerFlags"
Option "AllowMouseOpenFail"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
Driver "mouse"
Identifier "Mouse[1]"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "InputFashion" "Mouse"
Option "Name" "AutoDetected"
Option "Protocol" "ps/2"
Option "Vendor" "AutoDetected"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "on"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
Driver "mouse"
Identifier "USBmouse"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Name" "AutoDetected"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "Vendor" "AutoDetected"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection

Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Layout[all]"
InputDevice "Keyboard[0]" "CoreKeyboard"
InputDevice "Mouse[1]" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "USBmouse" "SendCoreEvents"
Option "Clone" "off"
Option "Xinerama" "off"
Screen "Screen[0]"
EndSection
