Quake3, mouse dont working

[raz0rblade]

I just installed the q3a point release on my rh9 box, installed the nvidia drivers, and copied my bid for power, urban terror, team arena, and base packs and upon starting q3 my mouse doesnt work. Any ideas on how to fix ?

I had the same problem, and I'll tell you how I fixed it.

Edit your XF86Config file and search for the Mouse section, and change your device whatever is it to /dev/input/mice

Hope this helps..

Point releases of Q3 before 1.32b also had MASSIVE mouse issues. Make absolutely sure you've installed the 1.32b point release.

its 1.32b , i got it today from planetquake3.net.

ill try that serz :)

[raz0rblade]

nope no good :( changing to /dev/input/mice didnt do a thing. :(

[serz]

Have you restarted your X-system once you changed that?

Try with /dev/input/mouse too. Maybe it works, luck.

[raz0rblade]

yep, /dev/input/mouse is an invalid device.

wait, does your mouse work fine in X, just not quake?

Also, i had horrible mouse issues in 1.32, 1.32b cured them for me. You might as well try both versions (if you can stand the reinstall).

X, works like a charm. Just doesnt work in q3a. Im using 1.32b, i cant find the orginal.
