When the mouse was left in other positions, no problem was shown. After Googling your message I commented-out the AllowEmptyInput line in my xorg.conf and now both internal touchpad and external mouse work perfectly and don't "halt the event queue" (or what it was) anymore. I still wonder the reason behind this behavior but as long as it's working, I won't complain. -- Lapo Luchini - http://lapo.it/ “Beware of bugs in the above code; I have only proved it correct, not tried it.” (Donald Knuth, 1977-03-22)Received on Tue Jun 02 2009 - 16:27:13 UTC
