Mouse? (fwd)
Hello everybody,
I think I have to clarify the question I have.
I have 2 mice which I tried....
One is 3-button Microsoft mouse. I use ms option in gpm. It works ALL
RIGHT in text mode: all three buttons. Under X-windows left and right
buttons are O.K., but middle one does not work at all. I tryed to emulate
the third button, but it does not work either.......
I decided to try my old Logitech mouse which I use on my 386 computer
under Linux as well. It is O.K there.... in text mode and X-windows, all 3
buttons. When I connect it to my Pentium (the computer in question) and
give gpm -t logi -m /dev/ttyS0 command it never returns to the shell's
prompt unless I press Ctrl-C..
If somebody could suggest anything regarding either of these mice, I would
be very thankful,
ZORO

Here is the original message I sent earlier....
Unfortunately I have got this question about mice...
I have a 3-button Microsoft mouse and it works fine in text mode. But I
could not get it to work under X-windows. Left and Right buttons seem to
be O.K., but middle one..... I can not even simulate it using other two.
To resolve the problem (I know some mice are crazy) I tryed to change
mouse to a different one, to logi. I know it works on Linux (it was
checked on a different Linux machine), but when I run
gpm -m /dev/ttyS0 -t logi
(dev ^^^ name is correct)
I never get my prompt back... I have to Ctrl-C. I tried different
baud rates using -b option, nothing helps.
