Hi all,

I found out why I lost my mouse since using knoppix 3.3 on my compaq armada M300 laptop. This problem did not occur on knoppix 3.2.

It turns out that in XF86Config-4 the mouse protocol definition changed between these versions. Putting it back from "auto" to "PS/2" made it work, after restarting the X-server (init 2 followed by init 5).

Was this change necessary? Is there a work-around? The boot parameter pci=irqmask=0x0e98 did not help.

other than that, I am very :P with the way things are working.
