[ltp] USB mouse; XFree86; Screen blanking

[Tom Rockwell]

Hi,

I have a USB mouse that I'm using on my X21 with Xfree86 4.1.0-3.

This works great, and the mouse can even be hot plugged.

The ony issue is that using the mouse does prompt the computer to keep 
the screen at full brightness or on.  The power management ignores the 
mouse.  This isn't a huge problem - changing turning off the screen 
dimming and blanking in the BIOS is a reasonable workaround.

However, I thought I'd ask if anybody knows of an actual fix?

Thanks,
Tom
