[Bug 119194] Re: [hardy] ps2 mouse erratic - parity errors - lost synchronization errors

[Bal]

 I recently bought 2000 pcs mice from manufacturer in China for sales in
Nepal. Have been using Linux for more than 10 years, never though PS/2
mouse wouldn't work on latest kernels. My display box says "Tested on
Debian/Ubuntu". Shocked to say that it does not work in Debian
Squeeze/Sid. Kernels tested, 2.6.32, 2.6.33 etc. It works OK on FC4 with
custom built kernel 2.6.20 and WinXP flowlessly. Other cheap  ps2 mice
work OK in this system.  Tried everything acpi, demux, etc. Issue is
exactly as stated in this bug.  Has following hardware in my system.

 It does all kind of wierd things when plugged in. Creating new
"untitled folders" clustered on the upper right corner and open files
and many wierd thngs.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
