Cordless laser mouse not working

[sandman00]

Hi,
I just installed Hardy Heron on my Dell d830 laptop. My Logitech MX600 cordless mouse was *not* connected during the install. Now when I connect my mouse, i.e. insert the usb dongle and press the "connect" button on the mouse, it does not work, after several attempts. Any help will be appreciated.
The dongle is detected by ubuntu, but the mouse does not work. My lsusb output is:


Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 007 Device 005: ID 067b:2506 Prolific Technology, Inc.

Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

Also, I had installed ubuntu on my older D630 laptop using the same mouse and it was working fine there. The only difference being the mouse was connected at the time of install.

Thanks.

Can you post the mouse section of your xorg.conf file? (/etc/X11/xorg.conf)

Also, if you have the time, the tutorial link in my signature will get your mouse going...
