 |
|
So I've got an interesting issue. I cannot use any sort of wireless mouse on my Gentoo install. I can, however, use my trackpad.
I connect my bluetooth mouse, for example, which has worked previously with this install, and I end up not being able to use it. It pairs successfully, and it appears to be connected (indicator shows), and the mouse acts as if it's connected, but I cannot use it for some reason.
I then went out and got a USB mouse, and that didn't work either.
Before connecting the mouse, I see the following in :
| Code: | tuxbox input # ls
by-id event1 event12 event2 event5 event8 mouse0
by-path event10 event13 event3 event6 event9
event0 event11 event14 event4 event7 mice
|
Once connected, I see the same thing.
Also, here's a relevant section of my dmesg.
| Code: | [ 11.928263] usbcore: registered new interface driver btusb
[ 11.938727] [drm] Initialized drm 1.1.0 20060810
[ 11.942737] Bluetooth: hci0: read Intel version: 370710010002030d4f
[ 11.942802] Bluetooth: hci0: Intel device is already patched. patch num: 4f

Anybody have any ideas as to what I did? I was messing with the kernel config (to shrink the amount of drivers) and likely took out an important one. But I'm baffled as to which one that would be...
Thanks,

probably some sort of HID
CONFIG_BT_HIDP=m
CONFIG_HID=y
CONFIG_HIDRAW=y
CONFIG_HID_GENERIC=y
CONFIG_HID_SENSOR_HUB=m
CONFIG_USB_HID=m
CONFIG_USB_HIDDEV=y
I'd try looking for it there. Maybe some more specific one, like
CONFIG_HID_A4TECH=y
CONFIG_HID_APPLE=y
or anything that matches your mouse. |

Yup! that did the trick. The issue was CONFIG_BT_HIDP.
I had:
But I needed it to be a module.
