I have a MS "Wheel Mouse Optical USB and PS/2 Compatible" mouse and am |
| 21 |
using the UBS-to-PS adapter because my KVM does not have USB. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
gpm's set to the imps2 protocol and the repeater is in raw mode. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
X is set to the IMPS/2 protocol. Here is the section from my |
| 26 |
XF86Config-4 file: |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
Section "InputDevice" |
| 29 |
Identifier "Mouse0" |
| 30 |
Driver "mouse" |
| 31 |
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" |
| 32 |
Option "Device" "/dev/gpmdata" |
| 33 |
Option "Buttons" "5" |
| 34 |
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" |
| 35 |
EndSection |
