Description Edward Matteucci 2003-02-08 08:57:52 UTC 
Distribution: debian sid  
Hardware Environment: via kt-400, athlon xp 2000 
Problem Description: 
I have a logitech optical usb mouse, 
the problem is that the 2.5.59-bk2 kernel doesn't see the wheel 
(on the same system, the wheel works perfectly under 2.4.21-pre4). 
I noticed that trying to "cat /proc/input/mice" while moving the 
mouse return some strange symbol unless i try to move the wheel. 
 
Steps to reproduce: 
plug in the mouse :-) 
 
ps I use devfs support.
