Hi Damjan,

Thank you for the patch but it did not work. Applied the patch, one hunk did not patch properly, manually added the line to pamouse-bace.c (psmouse->badchecksum = 0;) for that particular hunk. The modules compiled OK, but did not load for some reason, I must have done something wrong when only compiling psmouse.ko module. So I downloaded the 2.6.33 again, patched the tree with latest patches, 2010-03-03. Then patched with above psmouse patch. And compiled the whole thing again.

Everything went OK. New Kernel is working perfectly, except for my PS2 Mouse. dmesg shows

[ 0.834356] mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice
[ 129.761657] psmouse.c: Wheel Mouse at isa0060/serio1/input0 lost synchronization, throwing 3 bytes away.
[ 130.265621] psmouse.c: resync failed, issuing reconnect request

This is a cheap mouse, but it works in other systems. Other PS2 work in my system too, Too confused!!

Sincerely

Bal
