I've never used hid or linuxmouse. And when I saw your message I gave it a try (since I'm also running Ubuntu and have a synaptics touchpad).<br><br>I'd like to help but here it seems to be even a bigger mess... it crashes when accessing the mouse evice with hid. (probably because of the user space issue that dmotd mentioned).<br>
<br>How did you get that device list? Is it a print from hid? (the only things I remember is lspci and lsusb)<br><br>Best regards to everyone, and big up to Hans-Christoph Steiner for hid and linuxmouse,<br>Pedro<br><br>

also another tip, its possible to configure a<br>
device dynamically with 'xinput', you can<br>
toggle off with:<br>
xinput --set-prop "name of device" "Device Enabled" 0<br>
i use this with my wacom tablet to go between<br>
xorg device and HID, a full set of properties<br>
can be found with:<br>
xinput --list-props "name of device"<br>
i hope this is of help.<br>
