[Bug 482480] [NEW] Mouse Fails After KVM Switches Back To Ubuntu System

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-mouse

I use a KVM switch to jump between my tower and laptop, both placed on
my desk. With Ubuntu 9.04 this worked perfectly. In 9.10, when I switch
to the tower, then back to the laptop, the mouse is detected (as shown
by /var/log/messages) but moving it has no effect. If I use Ctrl-Alt-F1
to switch to the TTY, then Alt-F7 back to Xorg, the mouse starts
working.

The tower is running Windows 7, but that shouldn't matter.

The laptop has two monitors, the built-in and an external. It's
(obviously) the external panel that is attached via the KVM switch.

I am guessing that the problem is in xserver-xorg-input-mouse but I'd be
happy to be corrected.

Thanks.
