this is the pointer section in my /etc/X11/XF86Config-4:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2"
Option "Resolution" "2000"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "false"
Option "buttons" "5"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
the imps/2 protocol is most wheelie mice. corepointer means "this" device is
the main pointer (it would be an issue if i had say, a joystick hooked up
too). zaxismapping relates to the wheel. i do not want to emulate 3
buttons, since i have 3 buttons already. the device field says that the
pointer is plugged into the ps/2 port.
you can see what all the options mean in man XF86Config.
why would you install linux to vmware? that's like building a house with
paper mache foundation/struts and titanium walls....
