Subject: [9fans] USB mouse doesn't like being unplugged
Topicbox-Message-UUID: aa64d714-ead4-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025

Folks:

I am using usb/kb to provide support for my keyboard & mouse which are
plugged into a KVM.  They both seem to work well enough.  I still have
to use a PS/2 keyboard to input the mount point & user but at least
things start working when rio is available and I can do the "usb/kb"
thing.

My problem is when I switch to another machine and then come back to
my plan9 installation: the keyboard keeps working but the mouse stops
responding to all input.

I also get the following error when this happens:

usb/kb: mouse: read: usb endpoint stalled

Does anyone know how if it is possible to make the mouse portion of
usb/kb somewhat more resiliant to disappearing/reappearing?  I would
have hoped that this were possible seeing as how it's USB.


Thanks in advance,

Matt
