Mous Problems

Kenji Miyamoto · 05-21-2005, 08:47 PM

I'm using an old MS Intellimouse Explorer in the console (runlevel 3) with the PS/2 mouse driver. It's connected via a USB-to-PS/2 adapter, and has never had a single problem in any operating system. It can only move from left to right with this configuration, though. Did I choose the wrong driver? If so, where and what should I change?

Post /etc/X11/xorg.conf this part;

Code:

# **********************************************************************
# Core Pointer's InputDevice section
# **********************************************************************

Section "InputDevice"

# Identifier and driver

    Identifier	"Mouse1"
    Driver	"mouse"
    Option      "CorePointer"
    Option "Protocol"    "IMPS/2"
    Option "Device"      "/dev/psaux"
    Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"

# Mouse-speed setting for PS/2 mouse.

Try this no guarantee;

Code:

Section "InputDevice"
Driver "mouse"
Identifier "Mouse1"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Buttons" "5"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "false"
Option "Name" "AutoDetected"
Option "Vendor" "AutoDetected"

How could I copy it within the console to xorg.conf without a working mouse?
