What is needed here? pineconeHi Pinecone, It would help if you gave us some details. Which Debian are you running, how your mouse is connected (ps2?, usb? serial?) etc. I'm using 2.6.12 Etch (now with Xorg not XFree86) with a PS2 optical mouse and scrollwhell and the xorg.conf file looks like this: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Configured Mouse" Driver "mouse" Option "CorePointer" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Protocol" "imPS/2" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection Cheers, Jonathan Core Pointer's Input Section Identifier "Mouse1" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "PS/2" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Now, the /dev/psaux is what Knoppix does for the same machne, so I tried it. Knoppix runs just fine and it is based on Debian so you can imagine MY UTTER FRUSTRATION! pinecone |
