Quote:So, given that, any ideas? What changed in regards to USB/mouse handling from before?

Without getting into the boring/geeky details my suggestion is to stay with LL 1.0.4 or give Linux Lite 1.0.6 a try.

Why LL 106? Because it uses the same kernel version (version 3.2) as LL 104 and will *probably* have a much better chance of being hardware compatible and not causing an issue with the mouse.

Why not LL 2.0? I don't have a specific answer other than LL 2 uses kernel version 3.13 and newer kernels tend to drop support for previous hardware while adding support for newer hardware.
