Re: [expert] second mouse ?

[mycal62]

I used the info below to get my usb mouse working in Mdk 8.2 :

The following lines in my XF86Config-4 file allowed me
to use both a USB mouse and the mousepad in my laptop
with mandrake 8.2.
However it doesn't work in mandrake 9, only the usb
mouse works.

Dear Experts...
I have been trying to install a second mouse in my laptop....
It comes with a touch-pad-mouse, and I like a second one (usb-mouse...), but
tools like "mousedrake", Harddrake2, ... found just one of them ...
Can I have both mouses working at the same time ?

Not sure if this will help, but you can try :)
