Comment 9 for bug 30224

I had the same problem with a Trust optical ps2 mouse.
The problem can be solved installing 2.6.16 kernel. The smptoms are the same mouse switvh off light during the boot and even to make it work again under windows I have to hardware reset the computer. The problem for me is that I cannot use on this computer any live cd, for example edubuntu. If the patch could be backported from 2.6.16 to 2.6.15 it would be great.
Thank you very much for your attention
