Hello,
There is something wrong with the USB on this laptop I think.
When I try to plug a mouse in after Mint 8 is running, nothing happens. Not even a light on the mouse.
When I start Mint with the mouse already plugged in, the cursor moves, but it's laggy and slow and impossible to use.
What's wrong? What can I do to fix it?
The laptop is a crappy Fujitsu Siemens Amilo L7310W.

Re: USB fails to PnP
Try adding irqpoll to the end of the kernel line in the grub menu.
[Edit] your original post and add [SOLVED] once your question is resolved.

Re: USB fails to PnP
mikeyb's suggestion can be correct, however for a Linux newbie it is not easy to understand what to do
Find the line
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
add irqpoll between the quotation marks (save)
Then
Reboot for it to take effect
In earlier versions of Mint this is done differently
Code: Select all
gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
add irqpoll between the quotation marks (save)
Then
Code: Select all
sudo update-grub
