Hi,

After the last upgrade of Qubes + QubesVMs my usb mouse is not working.
If I run lsusb in sys-usb I can see the device, but apparently is not detected as a mouse, I think.

[user@sys-usb ~]$ lsusb
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 005 Device 002: ID 8087:8000 Intel Corp.
...
Bus 002 Device 009: ID 04f2:0976 Chicony Electronics Co., Ltd
...


The dom0 file /etc/qubes-rpc/policy/qubes.InputMouse has the line for the device:
sys-usb dom0 allow,user=root

I restarted the VM and the host machine but the problem persists.

Which could be the reason?

That's a wireless mouse isn't it and what you see there is the USB
receiver? You may be right that it isn't triggering the input proxy.

When you say "upgrade" do you mean that or simply "update"? I mean are
you still running 3.2?
What template are you using for the sys-usb? What were you using before?

Right, it is a wireless Mouse. I see the receiver

Sorry, it was just an update. I am using fedora-26 template. Using this same template was working fine before the dom0 & template update.
The rest of usb devices like usb drives or network adapter are working fine and recognized by the Qubes manager.

I found the problem.
When I updated the template I uninstalled Thunderbird, and the qubes-usb-proxy and other related tools are considered unused dependencies. I think that this is a bug in the template. I solved the issue installing the necessary packages.

$ sudo dnf remove thunderbird
