How get IMPS/2 mouse to work with X
Hello, I'm running OBSD on my IBM 486-DX4-100, 32MB ram. It has S3 video so is using the XFree86 version 3 driver, configured with xf86config. All is mostly well, except that I have a microsoft trackball (I think its called a MS Intellimouse Explorer) mouse with a wheel attached to the standard mouse aux port. Using the wscons protocol and device the wheel isn't recognized; wscons uses pmsi. pms(4) says that the pmsi will work with wheel mice of the 'Intellimouse' breed. However, I know from using the mouse with X on debian that this mouse needs the IMPS/2 protocol to get the wheel to work. I don't use or need the mouse in the console, only for X. I would like to be able to point my XF86Config at the mouse port directly and tell it to use the IMPS/2 protocol but I can't see how to to this or if it is possible. The /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/doc/README.mouse in the OpenBSD section says that to get extended mouse protocols to connect to the raw device /dev/psm0 but I don't see that under /dev nor in the MAKEDEV(4) man page. For all the mouse can also plug into USB, the computer predates USB. I'm running OBSD 4.0 since I downloaded it in May to try on this box that will nolonger run Debian. I want to get it all configured (learning along the way) and then experience the OBSD upgrade to 4.1 Below, are my dmesg and XF86Config. Thanks, Doug.

You probably need ZAxisMapping to use the scroll wheel Here's what I do (wsmouse abstracts usb/ps2/etc types): Section InputDevice Identifier Mouse0 Driver mouse Option Protocol wsmouse Option Device /dev/wsmouse Option ZAxisMapping 4 5 EndSection Douglas Allan Tutty [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, I'm running OBSD on my IBM 486-DX4-100, 32MB ram.

The pointer section that matches the mouse trial is below. Note that this is the XFree version 3 since version 4 (and xorg) doesn't work properly with my S3 video. As I understand it from the man pages, wsmouse abstracts USB/ps2/ and intellimouse but _not_ ImPS/2. So the question is: can I get wsmouse to pass the data raw (and not abstract anything) or ignore the mouse altogehter and get a /dev/ entry to point X at? With all the various boxes I've used this mouse, I had to tell X to use protocol IMPS/2. I tried with and without the Buttons line but the XFConfig man page says that the buttons used for ZAxisMapping have to be taken into consideration. The mouse has 4 real buttons plus the wheel that acts like a middle button, plus the wheel rolling events (one button for each direction). Thanks, Doug.
