1 Hi all.
2 I just can't seem to get my new mouse working. Up until now I have used a ps2
3 mouse with no problems.
4 Now I have a usb one and this is what I've done so far:-
5 recompiled the kernel to include usb input devices
6 checked that the mouse is connected using lsusb, this shows Bus 003 Device
7 002: ID 09da:022b A4 Tech Co., Ltd
8 My xorg.conf reads
9 Section "ServerLayout"
10 Identifier "X.org Configured"
11 Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
12 InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
13 InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
14 EndSection
15 Section "InputDevice"
16 Identifier "Mouse0"
17 Driver "mouse"
18 Option "Protocol" "Auto"
19 Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
20 Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
21 EndSection
22
23 I can't find any info on what to do to set the new mouse correctly
24 Can anybody please help
25 Thanks
26 Paul
