The bottom of my mouse says the mouse is an IntelliMouse 1.1A and PS/2 compatible. The port the mouse plugs into is a PS/2 port (ie, round). So within /etc/X11/XF86Config, I changed (under the "Pointer" section) the Protocol to be "PS/2", and then changed the Device to be "/dev/mouse" [On my box, /dev/mouse is a link to /dev/ttyS0.].
This did not work. IE, the pointer is still immovable. Also, I tried /dev/psaux, but my X server failed because it could not open this device. I believe both "PS/2" and "/dev/mouse" are correct. What else could be messing up the mouse/cursor? -c >I'v installed Debian 1.3 on an AMD-K6 platform. >My Xserver, XF86_S3V, starts out fine and autodetects >the chipset used for my Nitro 3D (S3 ViRGE/GX). >In the /etc/X11/XF86Setup, I specify in the Pointer >section a protocol of "IntelliMouse" and a device >of "/dev/ttyS0".
