++.B vmmouse
++is the VMMouse driver enables support for the special VMMouse protocol
++that is provided by VMware virtual machines to give absolute pointer
++positioning.
++.PP
++Installing the driver will improve the user experience when using the
++mouse to interact with the guest operating system. In particular, use of
++the driver improves mouse "lag", provides mouse speed and acceleration
++consistent with the user's host operating system, and enables the
++auto-grab/ungrab feature in VMware products without requiring the VMware
++toolbox application.
++.PP
++Using it is simply a matter of changing the driver used for the
++mouse input device from "mouse" to "vmmouse".
++.PP
++The vmmouse driver is capable of falling back to the standard "mouse"
++driver if a VMware virtual machine is not detected. This allows for
++dual-booting of an operating system from a virtual machine to real
++hardware without having to edit xorg.conf every time.
++.SH COMMON ATTRIBUTES
