Subject: [BUG] [input] Sometimes mouse gets detected as PS2++ Logitech
 Mouse instead of ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse

Dear Linux hackers,


arbitrarily (I would say every two month) my Logitech Cordless MouseMan
Wheel gets detected as (in dmesg)

PS2++ Logitech Mouse

instead of

ImPS/2 Logitech Wheel Mouse.

I notice this, if the scroll wheel does not work under X. Doing `sudo
rmmod psmouse` and `sudo modprobe psmouse` fixes the issue for me in
this (boot) session.

I have not found the reason for this and am not able to reproduce this.
As written this issue pops up arbitrarily.

Do you know what could causing this? If I can provide more information,
just tell me what.


Thanks,

Paul
