Bug #545
Updated by martin1234 over 5 years ago
I just discovered that this is a very old problem, but I just noticed it today. On boot I see this: psm0: failed to get data. psm0: <PS/2 Mouse> irq 12 on atkbdc0 psm0: model Generic PS/2 mouse, device ID 0 The mouse works in spite of that error message, but only the first time the psm0 device is used. Until today I was using moused to manage the mouse, so psm0 was only opened at boot, and worked correctly because I never shut down moused until reboot. Now I find that if I stop moused and try to start it again, I see 'cannot open /dev/psm0, device not configured' and the only thing I can do is reboot the machine. X acts the same way even if I don't use moused. This is specific to DragonFly (FreeBSD-current and linux both work correctly on the same machine) and the problem goes back at least as far as DF 1.5 (which I also still have on this same machine). Anyone else seeing this? Any ideas for debugging?
