Friends, fellow UF-ies, terrans.... by mekkanik_mike2004-03-09 03:58:57

      Cannot help you with the job part :-( by ideur2004-03-09 04:38:34
        I got RHL Psyche 8.0 (n/t) by mekkanik_mike2004-03-09 04:40:28
          OK; i read that as Red Hat Linux Version 8.0 by ideur2004-03-09 04:45:49
            OK; here we go again by ideur 2004-03-09 05:09:53
Parts from the kernel config:
You will need:
- USB support for your chipset :-)
- USB Human Interface Device (HID)
- Input core support
- within Input core support select "mouse support"
--> inside "Character devices" I have the mouse support disabled?!?!
I guess that is all that needs to be "on" in the kernel

Now for the /dev/ directory:

rudy@rudyspc:/dev$ ls -l mouse 
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root   12 Oct 30  2002 mouse -> input/mouse0
rudy@rudyspc:/dev$ 
That link is normaly pointing to a "tty" (serial mouse) or to "aux" (PS/2 mouse).

And X11 :

# Identifier and driver

    Identifier  "Mouse1"
    Driver      "mouse"
    Option "Protocol"    "ImPS/2"
    Option "Device"      "/dev/mouse"
    Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
The last line enables the wheel on the mouseman.

I hope that is all :-)
