To this extent we have (on 2.6) "psmouse" - for any sort of PS/2 (type is autodetected by driver) "amimouse" - not relevant for x86 "inport" - busmouse (Microsoft) whatever it is :) "lgibm" - Logitech bus mouse "logips2pp" - Logitech PS/2++ - no idea what it is "maplemouse" - irrelevant "pc110pad" - IBM touchpad (one of) "rpcmouse" - irrelevant "sermouse" - requires user-level helper :( "synaptics" - for synaptics what I meant is that harddrake could - automatically or manually - store mouse driver somewhere, probably in /etc/default/mouse, for later use by mkinitrd or some otehr script, e.g. gpm same for keyboard where we really have choice between "atkbd" "xtkbd" "98kbd" - anyone knows waht it is? > - the recent issues in kernel-2.6.0-test9 with sharing mouse & > keyboard box for several machine > >
