I don't know if this is a bug in one of the kernel module or in
inputattach.

I want to use my spaceball 4000FLX

When i run the command inputattach as explained in the doc, i have the
following error message:

 inputattach --spaceball /dev/ttyS0

I have not much idea where to look for a solution. I have very few knowledge in 
software development, but i feel confortable with linux system, and if i can be 
of any help to find a solution, please let me know.
