| Summary | 09535: mac128k, mac512k: Mouse cursor permanently stops responding on one or both axes if the mouse is moved during floppy disk activity | ||||
| Description |
If the mouse is actively moved while the floppy drive is busy (most commonly right at boot), the cursor permanently stops responding to further movement on whichever axis was being moved at that moment: - Moving the mouse along the X axis only, during disk activity, causes the X axis specifically to freeze. - Moving the mouse along the Y axis only causes the Y axis specifically to freeze. - Moving the mouse along both simultaneously causes both axes to freeze (the cursor becomes completely unresponsive). - Whichever axis/axes were NOT being moved during the vulnerable window continue to work normally. Closing and fully relaunching the MAME process always starts with a clean, working mouse. |
||||
| Steps To Reproduce |
1. Start mac128k (or mac512k), boot from sys11. 2. While the floppy drive is actively reading during boot (before the desktop finishes loading), continuously move the mouse back and forth along the X axis only for a few seconds. 3. After the boot finishes, attempt to move the cursor left/right and up/down |

There is no "System Disk 1.0" in the software lists. |

I checked, and the bug is fully reproducible on sys11. I updated the report, replacing "System Disk 1.0" with "sys11". |

Tried with sys11, and cannot reproduce this. The cursor disappears for a few moments, but never freezes. |

You should try moving the mouse during startup, even before anything appears on the screen, including the gray background and the cursor itself. This seems to be the only way to reproduce the bug on sys11. When I used third-party floppies (not listed in the software lists), this bug also appeared when loading heavy programs. That's why in the report I associated the problem with high floppy drive activity, not just computer startup. |

I forgot to mention that I had moved the mouse in different ways over the entire bootup process, multiple times. It never broke. |

I've attached a video with proof, but there's a typo: the X and Y axes are mixed up in the description. |

I thought d02687c25126136c736d1a97cfa5ddd74ba6701b would fix this, but it seems it didn't quite do that. |
