I have a Logitech trackball connected to my PS/2 mouse port, and use the following in my XF86Config: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "auto" Option "Device" "/dev/psm0" Option "Buttons" "5" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection If your mouse is a PS/2 mouse, try using /dev/psm0 and auto protocol. -- Matthew Graybosch http://www.starbreaker.net "I am become root, shatterer of kernels."
