Generally speaking, if you are to use the "mouse" as a data source, the mouse driver will need the data in a certain number of bytes per packet format. ATM I'm not sure how many bytes at a time that is, but a 3 button'er will usually use a 5 byte packet. Also, the mice I have are slow, using a 1.2 megabaud speed. > > >------------------------------------------------------- >This SF.Net email is sponsored by: SourceForge.net Broadband >Sign-up now for SourceForge Broadband and get the fastest >6.0/768 connection for only $19.95/mo for the first 3 months! >http://ads.osdn.com/?ad_id=2562&alloc_id=6184&op=click >_______________________________________________ >[EMAIL PROTECTED] >To unsubscribe, use the last form field at: >https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-usb-users -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
