Assume there are multiple mouse like devices one wishes to use alternating between them on the fly. The current implementation does not allow this. >How-To-Repeat: Make sure you are running one instance of moused already and then launch e.g. moused -r medium-high -t intellimouse -p /dev/cuad0 This will fail with a complaint like... moused: moused already running, pid: 1001 >Fix: Change moused to allow multiple simultaneous instances to run. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
