Hello folks,
I installed -current (1998-01-25 SNAP) on my laptop, and it (almost) works like
a charm.
I have two mice (the embedded PS/2 touchpad and an external serial L*gitech
mouse), and I would like to use both them *at same time*.
They both work as primary input device under X, so I tried to add the extended
input section at XF86Config, but this did not help me.
Is there anybody that can tell me where I am wrong?
I include here the relevant part of /etc/XF86Config:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[...]
# **********************************************************************
# Pointer section
# **********************************************************************
Section "Pointer"
Protocol "PS/2"
Device "/dev/psm0"
# When using XQUEUE, comment out the above two lines, and uncomment
# the following line.
# Protocol "Xqueue"
# Baudrate and SampleRate are only for some Logitech mice
# BaudRate 9600
# SampleRate 150
# Emulate3Buttons is an option for 2-button Microsoft mice
# Emulate3Timeout is the timeout in milliseconds (default is 50ms)
Emulate3Buttons
Emulate3Timeout 50
# ChordMiddle is an option for some 3-button Logitech mice
# ChordMiddle
EndSection
# **********************************************************************
# Xinput section -- this is optional and is required only if you
# are using extended input devices. This is for example only. Refer
# to the XF86Config man page for a description of the options.
# **********************************************************************

Section "Xinput"

SubSection "Mouse"
Port "/dev/cuaa0"
DeviceName "Second Mouse"

# BaudRate 9600

EndSubSection
EndSection
