Hello all,

Finally decided to give a development kernel a try on an HP zt1180 laptop. The kernel build went smoothly and I thought all was well (well except I guess I've gotta figure out frame buffer support again) until I started X and discovered that the mouse wasn't working.

I'm guessing this list doesn't allow attachments, and I don't really want to splat all over everybody with the output I thought relevant, so I've posted it on my website:

	http://www.parts-unknown.org/hp-zt1180-dmesg.gz
	http://www.parts-unknown.org/hp-zt1180-lspci.gz
	http://www.parts-unknown.org/hp-zt1180.config.gz

wget should work.

Did I miss a configuration option or do some other stupid thing?

Just a few points. First, is your input pointed at /dev/input/mouse ? Second, you need the userspace synaptics for touchpads, which unfortunately needs to be done.

As long as the attachments arent big, I think it's ok. I sent here a few problems just like what you're talking about.

Good day,
