[Bug 267222] Re: Mouse pointer won't move on boot

 

The problem seems to occur more infrequently than before.  Both times it
has happened since your comment the problem was gone after I plugged the
mouse out and in again.  dmesg.log.problemgone is the output of dmesg
after I unplugged and replugged it, dmesg.log.problem is before I
unplugged it.

uname -a gives:
Linux ubuntu 2.6.27-9-generic #1 SMP Thu Nov 20 22:15:32 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Bug description:
On boot, sometimes the mouse pointer is stuck and won't move unless the mouse is plugged out and back in, and even then it will only work for a few seconds until it's stuck again.  It's Apple's Mighty Mouse.  I dual-boot OS X, and the problem only seems to appear when I have just been in OS X and reboot into Ubuntu.  After an arbitrary amount of reboots, the problem disappears.

I'm using Ubuntu 8.04.1 on a 64-bit Mac Pro.

I can fully understand if this is given a low priority, but it is very annoying.
