] Perhaps the vivi mouse driver works with the gengo mouse?
Anyway its for windows. I also wanted a DOS driver, so I can use
arachne and neopaint without having to use my old mouse.
(I would like that comport for my null-modem cable permamently
instead of the old one. Plus the new one is smoother and would be a
lot easier for the painting :)
] I forget, does the gengo mouse work with one of the protocols supported by
] Linux gpm driver?
Yes, with "gpm -t ps2"
] I have two fairly new three-button mice. One is a
] Logitech, ps2 but also works as serial in both DOS and Linux, with all the
] standard drivers. No problem.
But with the PS/2 port? That was the point of buying a PS/2 mouse...
I have the port and want to dedicate the comport to something else.
] The other is a Mouse Systems (a serial, but
] with a ps2 connector as well). This only works in DOS with the Mouse
] Systems driver which came with it on floppy, cute mouse driver does not
] find it, and in Linux I can only get it to work with the gpm driver.
] X-Windows crashes unless I use the output from the gpm driver as the input
] to X-Windows.
X-Windows finds it good. I went into the XFSetup (the one that uses
VGA16 server to setup the X you usually use) and it was working
without me telling it. Even with gpm killed it still works in X.
I was sent drmouse.com and it doesn't find it. (Its essentially
ctmouse and ctmousep rolled into one program)
