Oops ...  I'm sorry.  I thought that bluetooth would feed
the sysmouse protocol data via moused(8), just like USB.
I've never used a bluetooth mouse before, which explains
my mistake.  :-)

But on the other hand, I think it would be very useful if
bluetooth mice used moused(8), too, so you could use all
of its features, like dynamic acceleration, physical-to-
logical button mapping, wheel mapping, and so on.  That
might even enable David to solve his problem.

Best regards

It's trivial to make fun of Microsoft products,
but it takes a real man to make them work,
and a God to make them do anything useful.
