RH 8.0 and Belkin Omnicube

[Ricky Deitemeyer]

Greetings to all-   I’m experiencing problems getting Linux to cooperate with my Belkin Omnicube switch box.  Specifically, the keyboard and mouse both become very erratic when I switch over between machines.  I found this solution on the Belkin website:   A: Close gpm (the thing that does mouse for console apps) and also change the XF86Config mouse section to be as below. Try to wait a few seconds after switching before moving the mouse. # ********************************************************************** # Pointer section # ********************************************************************** Section "Pointer" Protocol "IMPS/2" Device "/dev/mouse" Buttons 3 # Buttons 5 # ZAxisMapping 4 5 # When using XQUEUE, comment out the above two lines, and uncomment # the following line. # Protocol "Xqueue" # Baudrate and SampleRate are only for some Logitech mice # BaudRate 9600 # SampleRate 150 # Emulate3Buttons is an option for 2-button Microsoft mice # Emulate3Timeout is the timeout in milliseconds (default is 50ms) # Emulate3Buttons # Emulate3Timeout 50 # ChordMiddle is an option for some 3-button Logitech mice # ChordMiddle     Alright, so I tried this, but still no dice.  My XF86Config file seems to be in a different format than their edit, so I am assuming that RH 8.0 has a newer version of the file?  Anyone know how to implement this fix?  If it at all helps, I am using a standard M$ Wheel mouse.   Thanks a lot,   Ricky Deitemeyer Mediabase Tech Dept.
