I've only just recently tried running 2.6.24 on my main machine.
And it appears that I'll have to go back to 2.6.23,
because the USB mouse is not working correctly.

Single-clicking on things with 2.6.24 very frequently gives a "double-click".
This does not happen with 2.6.23.8.

I wonder what broke it?

I've grabbed mousedev.c from 2.6.23 and inserted that in place
of the updated 2.6.24 source, but no change. So it's not that
file.

Mmm.. reverting the entire drivers/hid directory to that from 2.6.23
seems to have fixed the problem, so we now know it's in there
somewhere.



just making sure.. this is while running an untainted kernel without
something like vmware loaded, right?
..

Absolutely.

But thanks for reminding me.. I need to re-run vmware-config.pl now.
