1 Dear Gentoo developers,
2
3 I have installed gentoo rc5. Mostly works very well. There is one odd
4 thing I'd like to ask about.
5
6 The usb interface doesn't use /dev/input/mice. Instead, it grabs
7 /dev/psaux, making it impossible for me to use both my usb mouse and my
8 ps2 mouse. If I disconnect the usb mouse, then the next time the system
9 reboots it sees my ps2 mouse.

11 I'd like to be able to use both of these mice!
