hi there... i set this up, and udev seems to be creating the symlink dynamically
as expected.
however... there is one major problem! instead of creating the link to
/dev/input/mouseX, it is creating to the link to /dev/input/ts2, which does not
appear to be a valid mouse device. how can i fix it? (ts2 appears only when the
usb mouse is plugged in)
cheers,
Sam
