Re: USB Corless Mouse Not working in X



Yes, thats what I think as well. I have two InputDevice sections one
refering to psaux and one to /dev/input/mice. If I only use the
/dev/input/mice piece it complains about no pointer device. And when I
change the /dev/psaux to /dev/input/mice then X does not startup at
all.

Should I have 2 configurations and if not what is the correct syntax
for the one configuration?
