Subject: 2mice wanted in console and X
I'd like to have both mice working with gpm and X. My gpm and X relevant
sections follow and ideas on tweaking these to make this work would be
appreciated.
Using a laptop (Gateway9550) with its builtin mouse, and a USB mouse
(logitech optical cordless)
The following gives me the builtin but not the USB in console but both
working mice in X
/usr/sbin/gpm -m /dev/psaux -t autops2 -Rraw
(From XF86Config-4)
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Configured Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/gpmdata"
Option "Protocol" "PS/2"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "USB Mice"
Driver "mouse"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
# Option "Device" "/dev/gpmdata"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2"
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Default Layout"
Screen "Default Screen"
InputDevice "Generic Keyboard"
InputDevice "Configured Mouse"
InputDevice "USB Mice"
EndSection
The following gives me both mice in console but I lose one ( jerky
unpredictable behavior) in X
/usr/sbin/gpm -m /dev/psaux -t autops2 -Rraw -M -m /dev/input/mice -t
imps2 -Rraw
