Comment 6 for bug 93315

Hi,

I have more info:

- I am running my Ubuntu in a Dell C400 laptop which is connected to a docking station

- It has a touchpad. This is the output from dmesg:
[17179601.092000] Synaptics Touchpad, model: 1, fw: 5.7, id: 0x9b46b1, caps: 0x804793/0x0

- This morning I decided to test an old Microsoft usb IntelliMouse Explorer. At the beginning, I couldn't get it working when I plugged it to the laptop's usb port or to one of the two in the docking station. To be sure that nothing was wrong with the laptop's usb port, I connected my Sandisk Cruzer micro flash memory. It worked perfectly. Then and only then, the IntelliMouse started working when I plugged it to the usb port. This is the lsusb output with the IntelliMouse connected:

Bus 001 Device 003: ID 045e:0047 Microsoft Corp. IntelliMouse Explorer 3.0
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

- With the hope of seeing my MouseTrapper working again, I replaced the IntelliMouse with the MouseTrapper. This is the output of lsusb without any of them:

Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

And this is lsusb's output when I connected my MouseTrapper:

Bus 001 Device 007: ID 0d24:0004
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

It didn't work. I checked dmesg and it starts giving out messages like this: (a lot of them)

usb 1-1: new low speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 19
[17181156.680000] usb 1-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

I thought all this might be interesting for you to know.
Regards.
