Need some linux help.

--- Quote from: lam47;14731 ---since the install. I was running 32bit before and also had the same problem.
2.6.27-9 has been locking up during start up too which is strange.
I just booted 2.6.27-7 kernal and it started fine.
It did go to the black screen that shows you all the bits and bobs being loaded during boot though.

I have 2.6.27-9 running on 2 machines with no issues.
You don't have any live cd's lying around do you?
You could boot off of one of them and see if the problem follows.
Is it possible you have a hardware issue?
bigpook:
Unless something has been manually misconfigured,its hard to say.
Linux does a good job of recognizing keyboards, mice etc during the install and I don't remember having issues with a mouse.
Sometimes X11 doesn't get the screen resolution right, but I think they fixed that in 8.10.
Still thinking....
lam47:
thanks bigpook.
Im just going to have a bath then I will try a live CD, thanks for trying mate :)
bigpook:
If the mouse problem persists with the live cd then you may very well have some issue with hardware.
lam47:
This is the xinput section from the live boot.
The loop which takes up about 8 pages is gone.
Is it going to do any harm just leaving it as it is?
