Description (last modified by davidrg)

Hardware is an HP nc6400 laptop currently running hrev55430 but this behaviour existed on beta3 as well.

After reaching the desktop the mouse is unresponsive for several seconds. Trying to use the mouse during this period seems to increase the chance of this problem occurring but I can't reliably reproduce the issue so I can't say for sure if this is the case.

It only affects the mouse and keyboard - the system is otherwise working fine. Pressing the power button does a clean shutdown, and I can SSH in ok which is how I was able to grab a copy of syslog.

Relevant lines from syslog are probably:

KERN: ps2: reset failed
KERN: ps2: devfs_publish_device input/mouse/ps2/1, status = 0xffffffff
KERN: ps2: reset failed
KERN: ps2: devfs_publish_device input/mouse/ps2/2, status = 0xffffffff
KERN: register_domain(9, unix)
KERN: ps2: reset failed
KERN: ps2: devfs_publish_device input/mouse/ps2/3, status = 0xffffffff
KERN: ps2: devfs_publish_device input/keyboard/at/0, status = 0x00000000
KERN: ps2: keyboard reset failed, status 0x80000009, data 0x00
KERN: ps2: keyboard probing failed
KERN: KeyboardDevice: error when opening /dev/input/keyboard/at/0: No error
KERN: ps2: devfs_unpublish_device input/keyboard/at/0, status = 0x00000000

Linux detects the mouse as:

[    3.115857] psmouse serio4: synaptics: Touchpad model: 1, fw: 6.2, id: 0x2580b1, caps: 0xa04793/0x300000/0x0/0x0, board id: 0, fw id: 240405
[    3.115866] psmouse serio4: synaptics: serio: Synaptics pass-through port at isa0060/serio4/input0
