I have RedHat6.0 on IBM thinkpad i1451(co-exists with win98.) Evenything
was fine until I plugged a Kensington external trackball to the mouse
port. Now when I boot to Linux, it only recognize the external trackball.
It ignores the internal trackpoint even the external trackball is not
plugged in. But Win98 work fine with both. Is this some sort of broken PnP
feature of RedHat? How do I let Linux know to use the internal trackpoint.
Remember, it was working before and it still works for Win98(meaning Win98
will use the external trackball when it's there and use the internal one
when the external is not plugged in.) Is this a Linux device thing or just
XF86 thing? I notice /dev/mouse is a symlink to ps2aux but I am not sure
what it looked like when the internal trackpoint was working though.
