Hey.... I need help. Everyday, Everytime, When i go and turn on nexuiz the first time on that day. The mouse won't work. I even have to restart my computer by Pressing the button and release. I don't want to keep on doing that. even when i go on my computer and log off and then go back on it does the same....

Note: Everytime when i go sleep I log off my side and go on my sisters side and turn on ktorrent. (Dunno if that helps or anything)

Note2: Im using arch linux!!!!! Not windows or ubuntu.

Thx for helping

Do I get it right, that the first time you start Nexuiz, it doesn't get any input from the mouse, but the next time it does?

Does it happen with both glx and sdl versions? What xorg version are you using? Are you using evdev or old good mouse driver?

Right now im only using sdl. What do u mean xorg version? how do i check? and how do i check if im using evdev or old good mouse driver.?

Try glx then.

X --version.

Post /etc/X11/xorg.conf mouse section.

Captain obvious to the rescue...

Code: Select all

Section "InputDevice"
   Identifier  "Keyboard0"


What do I read here? Keyboard? Could this be the configuration for a mouse?
...
Lemme think...
...
NO.

Code: Select all

Identifier  "Serial Mouse"
Identifier  "PS/2 Mouse"
Identifier      "USB Mouse"


What kind of mouse do yo have? USB? Serial? PS/2 ?


THINK!

Btw none of these are related to your problem, because everything seems normal.
I don't think it would do anything in your case, but I'd comment out (put # before lines) those parts you don't need (why'd you have that ancient serial mose configured anyway???)

Hey mr.Captain smarty pants, this is a support / bugs thread and wow an ancient serial mouse? WHO CARES! geez not everything in life is perfect. And i just found a solution THX TO alien!

He said to use Glx instead and it works! so THREAD CLOSED!

Frist:
Arch is not considered a userfriendly linux distribution, and looking at your questions, you don't seem like an experienced linux user.
Ad2:
Even if it's support, we won't do the thinking for you. We help, we suggest, but we won't solve your problems for you, if you don't wanna think.
Ad3: Sorry if I've hurt your feelings about the mouse if you use a serial one. I just haven't seen a single one in let's see... in almost 8 years now.
Ad4:I'm happy your problem is solved with the glx binary.
Ad5:It's me who tells when a thread is closed. But as you wish.
CLOSED.
