Indeed, thanks for the tip!
But I wonder if some kind of magic is needed to get it working?
I'm using 2.2.15 (yes, I know about the vulnerability ;), and I can
successfully load the usb-ohci, mouse and usbcore modules. But neither gpm nor
XFree86 work with /dev/usbmouse, protocol IMPS/2 (also tried mman in gpm, no
dice).
What am I missing?
