Re: gpm config for Logitech MouseMan+ PS/2

2000-03-20 Thread Antonio Fiol Bonnín
I imagine that I have one of those mice that are not 'boxed', as I bought
it with the computer. My config is just like yours for X, and the
difference between your config for gpm and mine should be inexistent... I
tried everything...

I'll have to wait until someone develops support for my mouse :(

 possibly this has been fixed.

boxed versions are a) really boxed (i.e., in a box, mine was green) and
have b) a coloured logitech-logo on top.
you probably have a oem-version, since it was packaged with the pc.

 I'll have to wait until someone develops support for my mouse :(
 
this is one possibility ...

here is how i did it: when i discovered, that i had a non-working
bulk-version, i simply gone to the store i bought it, gave it back and
bought a working mouse in another store. they were quite
cooperative. hope, you have a nice vendor. :-)

That's a good one... I hope they don't tell me it's too late ;)

Re: gpm config for Logitech MouseMan+ PS/2

2000-03-19 Thread Oswald Buddenhagen
 What is the correct gpm configuration for a Logitech MouseMan+ PS/2
 three-button wheel mouse ? I keep getting the following message in my
 logs: 

_possibly_ the right config may be imps (IntelliMousePS/2) - but that's
just an idea ...

From experience in my shop: imps2 works with the retail Mman+ mice (the
logitech logo on top) but not with the OEM Mman+ mice (the mouse drawing
on top), and I think it's been posted before.

I have a similar problem. Everything is OK with X with config:

Section Pointer
ProtocolIMPS/2
Device  /dev/mouse
ZAxisMapping 4 5
EndSection

With gpm, I have tried type=imps2. No good, but...
when switching off gpm (/etc/init.d/gpm stop) with that config, and
relaunching it with type=ps2 in the config file (as I had it before trying
to use the wheel), it works.

Any ideas?

Thank you!
