I bought 2 small Gyrtion mice from Woot for use on myth. (<a href="http://www.woot.com/Blog/ViewEntry.aspx?Id=7039">http://www.woot.com/Blog/ViewEntry.aspx?Id=7039</a>) <div><br></div><div>On my remote frontend, I plugged it in and it worked without doing anything special. On my main combined frontend-backend, it works for about 2 minutes after a boot and then quits. I copied the "good" setup from the remote system to the main one and it still doesn't work for longer than a couple minutes after a reboot even though the xorg.conf is the same for both the kbd and mouse. Other aspects of xorg.conf are different because the main system has a projector, svideo and lcd as described on previous posts.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I can't find any mention of this Gyration mouse even existing more less how to configure it for linux or more properly why it works on one system and not on the other. It always works just fine on a reboot (for a while) without requiring resetting the mouse so I can't see that it is the reason for the sudden problem. I have tried both mice and that isn't it.</div>
