does this mean mouse configuration in XFree will always be:

  Section "InputDevice"
      Identifier "Mouse1"
      Driver "mouse"
      Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
      Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
  EndSection

when linux 2.4 compatibility is no more a pb?
(or only choose Emulate3Buttons or not)

what about "ExplorerPS/2" protocol ?

for X11, maybe we could configure both devices and rely on
