Re: upgrade sun mouse to ps2 mouse



In console mode ( have to bee root )
od -x /dev/psaux
will give you the raw output in hex from your PS/2 mouse to the console 
od -x /dev/sunmouse is for the Sun Mouse
After this command, move your mouse and if see you numbers and letters cluttering up the screen, your mouse is at least recongnized by the kernel
