My USB mouse used to work fine on Ubuntu 16.04, but recently it stopped working. I have a dual booting with Windows, and the mouse works fine there.
So, for troubleshooting, I tried this solution from this link.



But when I typed sudo rmmod usbhid on the terminal, this error is shown,




rmmod: ERROR: Module usbhid is not currently loaded.




So, how do i proceed from here onwards?
