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 :-)
