Bug Description

Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.22

I have successfully installed my first Ubuntu 7.10 and used an available USB mouse for the purpose. No problems recognising any of the old hardware. I now need to change it for a normal mouse, to use keyboard, mouse and video sharing between 2 computers. If I just plug-in the new mouse it is not seen in gutsy and can't find any options to "install new hardware". I am sure, given the completeness of the overall package, that this must be possible even for a beginner.

Any help appreciated.

Beginning with the Hardy Heron 8.04 development cycle, all open Ubuntu kernel bugs need to be reported against the "linux" kernel package. We are automatically migrating this bug to the new "linux" package. However, development has already began for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. It would be helpful if you could test the upcoming release and verify if this is still an issue - http://www.ubuntu.com/testing . If the issue still exists, please update this report by changing the Status of the "linux" task from "Incomplete" to "New". We appreciate your patience and understanding as we make this transition. Thanks!
