[Bug 67734] Re: Mouse pointer freezes in Dell Dimension E521 / nForce 430

[Sean McEwen]

I have a Dimension E521 and have experienced the same problems as
everyone else. I have my mouse and keyboard attached to the usb ports in
the back. I am using Dapper and when I boot the Dapper linux kernel
2.6.15-27 the mouse and keyboard is frozen at GDM.

Last night I tried booting Ubuntu Dapper kernel 2.6.15-27 with the boot
option pci=routeirq. After booting the mouse and keyboard were both
active and usable. I haven't tried it for too long, it may still freeze
after a while, but those still using Dapper may want to give this try.
It would also be good to see if it works for Edgy. I haven't had a
chance to upgrade to Edgy yet but others who have may want to try it.

Hope this helps and goodluck,

Sean.
