Thanks. I do have /dev/input/mice and putting that into xorg.conf |
| 26 |
solves the error. However the mouse doesn't work. Here is the relevant |
| 27 |
section of my xorg.conf: |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
Section "InputDevice" |
| 30 |
Identifier "Mouse0" |
| 31 |
Driver "mouse" |
| 32 |
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2" |
| 33 |
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" |
| 34 |
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" |
| 35 |
EndSection |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
Please note I only have one mouse. It part of a wireless Logitec |
| 38 |
mouse/keyboard combo and plugs into the standard PS/2 mouse socket. |

Thanks for your help. |
