Razer Ouroboros mouse not working

gentoomousexorg

The Problem

I don't mean the extra keys and what not, I'm just talking about getting the pointer to move across the screen and the left and right buttons to click.

I've got it plugged into the system directly using the cable.

I'm running Gentoo right now. The mouse works fine in the Ubuntu live CD on the same machine.

I got it working on another Gentoo installation. That installation has three major differences:

  1. It is slightly more up to date.
  2. I was using a USB3 port, instead of a USB2 port.
  3. It's using a genkernel kernel, instead of a custom one. I've been unable to test genkernel on this machine because genkernel is apparently unable to generate a kernel that boots on this one.

Next thing I can try is to update my installation.

I also need to try this on something like Ubuntu to see if it can autodetect the hardware, because that will confirm that my problem is related to configuration.

So does anyone have any ideas? I couldn't find anything about this mouse on Linux on the Internet. I've also never seen a mouse flat-out not working on Linux.

Here's the relevant output I could find:

cat /dev/input/event9
µS°cat: /dev/input/event9: No such device
cat: /dev/input/event9: No such device

In this case event9 is the device assigned to the mouse, see Xorg.0.log below.
The characters before the error messages are random, which make me think they are mouse movements. They also pop up after some time.

The mouse appears to disconnect / reconnect whenever I press one of the mouse buttons:

Things I've Tried

  • I re-compiled my kernel with CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TT_NEWSCHED=y, since some people suggested that. It had no effect as far as I could tell.
  • I upgraded my kernel to the newest version that was available, no change.
  • I tried the kernel config from the other Gentoo machine, no change.

Currently Investigating

  • I suspect there's some sort of issue with USB2 vs USB3. The other machine has a USB3 port, and the problematic one doesn't. I've also experienced problems with this regarding MTP.

Best Answer

I had the same issue on my Clevo W110ER running Gentoo 4.0.9. Ouroboros worked well on both USB3.0 ports but not on USB2.0 port (though dmesg showed it was attached). Setting 

CONFIG_USB_EHCI_ROOT_HUB_TT=y                                           
CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TT_NEWSCHED=y

to kernel resolved the problem. Hope this helps you to avoid unnecessary debug flags and usless modules from your kernel.
