Hello Patrick,
works like a charm. I had to test a little bit, but i ended up with
/dev/sysmouse in Xorg config and the following lines in the devd.conf:
attach 200 {
device-name psm0;
action /usr/sbin/moused -a 2 -p /dev/psm0 -I
/var/run/moused.psm0.pid;
/usr/sbin/vidcontrol -m on; };
attach 220 {
device-name ums0;
action /usr/sbin/moused -a 2 -p /dev/ums0 -I
/var/run/moused.ums0.pid; /usr/sbin/vidcontrol -m on; };
Where psm0 is my touchpad and ums0 my external mouse. Ok i never
wanted mouse support on the console, but it's maybe i feature i'll get
used to ;-)
Thanks a lot,
Marco

Hi List,
Hello,
i've using a Notebook with touchpad which works perfeclty fine.
However, i'd like also to use in paralell an external via usb connect
mouse. If i configure this hard into X.org config
it will work but i stumble here on problems. First of all, i have to
shutdown the X.org Server to do so, and restart it. Secondly i was not
able to tell X.org to use both device, which
would be the touchpad and the external mouse.
Possibly there is a daemon i can run in backround which maybe handles
that? Anyone has a solution for that kind of problem or something to
hit me in the right direction?
moused(8) is able to mix several mice.
You can use devd to call moused when an usb mouse is inserted, with a
rule in /etc/devd.conf like :
attach 200 {
device-name ums0;
action /usr/sbin/moused -a 5 -p /dev/ums0
-I /var/run/moused.ums0.pid ; /usr/sbin/vidcontrol -m on; };
In Xorg.conf, use /dev/sysmouse for the mouse device.
That's all.
Regards.
