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

 

Hi Edvin,

This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in
it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try
with the latest development release of Ubuntu?  ISO CD images are
available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ .

If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a
Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal).  It will automatically
gather and attach updated debug information to this report.

apport-collect -p linux 267222

Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would
be great.  It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the
issue.  Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds .  Once
you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-
testing' tag.  This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon
next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and
deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text.  Please let us know your
results.

Thanks in advance.

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.
