Hello, all... Periodically (say once every day or two), I get a chunk like the below in / var/log/messages: Oct 21 09:54:03 talon kernel: hub.c: already running port 1 disabled by hub (EMI?), re-enabling... Oct 21 09:54:03 talon kernel: usb.c: USB disconnect on device 00:07.2-1 address 7 Oct 21 09:54:03 talon kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:07.2-1, assigned address 8 Oct 21 09:54:03 talon kernel: input0: USB HID v1.10 Mouse [Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse] on usb1:8.0 While it seems to come back to life ok, my USB mouse is now assigned to /dev/ input/mouse1, while X is still listening to /dev/input/mouse0. The only way that I've found to get my mouse working again is to: 1. logout 2. From Console: init 3; /etc/init.d/hotplug restart; init 5 3. Login again The machine is a Dell Inspiron 4000. This is truely frustrating; does anybody know a solution? I never saw this while I was running SuSE 8.0; it only started occuring after my 8.2 upgrade, but I understand that this may be a red hering. Thanks for any feedback / help. -Nick -- /`-_ Nicholas R.
