I have hose something up on my system (Mandrake8.1) while trying to configure my laptop to use both the touchpad and a usb mouse. I went to the sxs and followed the directions there as best I could. It didn't say anything about using 2 mice though but I got all the modules loaded ok. So I searched google and found something that also showed how to modify XF86Config. It said to add another InputDevice section for the usb mouse and to use device '/dev/input/mice' which does exist.
After some messing around trying to get it to work it dawned on me that they were now both using driver 'mouse' and that didn't seem right. Unfortunately I don't remember where driver 'mouse' originally linked to but I assumed psaux. Now driver 'mouse' is linked to usbmouse which should be in /dev/usb but there is nothing there except hid/. I hope that made sense. I am lost as to how to proceed. If anyone can help it would be appreciated. vern _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list - http://linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Archives,and Digests are located at the above URL.
