Mouse (trackpad) used to work fine - now unreliable.

Description (last modified by axeld) (diff)

The mouse (trackpad) is much less reliable in very recent Haiku releases. The mouse pointer sometimes hangs or freezes during or shortly after startup. mouse buttons are not responsive; there is a delay between clicking a button and the action taking place. This makes the user interface hard to use.

I don't understand this. Why are we publishing a standard and a synaptics mouse at the same time and at the same index? Is this even supported? I only did the standard mouse part. Because stippi committed the patch with r28643 I'm reassigning it

KERN: ps2: devfs_publish_device input/touchpad/ps2/synaptics_3, status = 0x00000000

KERN: ps2: devfs_publish_device input/mouse/ps2/standard_3, status = 0x00000000
