However, i'd like also to use in paralell an external via usb connect mouse. If i configure this hard into X.org config it will work but i stumble here on problems. First of all, i have to shutdown the X.org Server to do so, and restart it. Secondly i was not able to tell X.org to use both device, which would be the touchpad and the external mouse. Possibly there is a daemon i can run in backround which maybe handles that? Anyone has a solution for that kind of problem or something to hit me in the right direction? As usual thank you in advance, Marco
