Hi list,
I was pleased that my Microsoft Wireless Presenter mouse successfully 
attaches with CURRENT ums without fiddling with the source.  I had to 
write a patch to use it with 6.2 (I submitted it to the drivers 
list...probably the wrong place to submit it).  However, button bit 
positions and x,y,z,t positions do not register properly (This mouse 
reports mostly lies).  I see a newly added quirks section for the 
Microsoft wireless optical mouse, though, is there a way I can 
gracefully add the quirks for this particular mouse too?
Additionally, this mouse has 5 extra buttons on the bottom that serve 
for presentation purposes, though the mouse doesn't actually report 
them.  The mouse has some sort of mode or status byte that can indicate 
whether the bottom 5 presentation buttons are in use or if the normal 
buttons are in use.  I don't think this support would be too difficult 
to add, I'm just not sure how useful it is or how to add the support 
such that it isn't disruptive to other mice.
