Mouse stopped working in Xfce and Gnome

Postby pismire » Jul 14th, '12, 21:05

I installed Mageia 2 last week from a DVD, and everything was working fine. I've been trying out the different desktops (KDE, Gnome, LXDE, and Xfce), but just last night my mouse stopped working in Gnome and Xfce (and by mouse, I mean trackpad on my laptop). It still works in KDE and LXDE. The keyboard on Xfce works just fine, as far as I can tell, and reinstalling Xfce didn't help any. I'm truly baffled by this. I wasn't even playing around with settings at the time, nor did I reboot. It just stopped while using acroread.
