remember, the device NAMES are irrelivant. your mouse could be called
/dev/mongoose and still function as a mouse if you give it the correct major
and minor numbers which you can view w/ 'ls -l'. So if you can't find a mouse
device, consider just making one of your own.

ok. i just recently did a re-install. i have a logitech wingman mouse. my last
install worked perfect w/ this. not this time however. i don't THINK i've done
anything differently this time around, yet i can't use the middle mouse button
for anything in X.
otherwise it works fine. just no middle

I use the following in my /etc/X11/XF8gConfig:
Section "Pointer"
Protocol "PS/2"
Device"/dev/psaux"
Emulate3Buttons
EndSection

I have GPM set up like so:
/etc/gpm.conf:
device=/dev/psaux
responsiveness=
type=ps2
append="-R"
And X like so:
/etc/X11/XF86Config:
Section "Pointer"
Protocol"MouseSystems"
Device "/dev/gpmdata"
So that X will read the mouse data that GPM leaves in a fifo /dev/gpmdata.

the correct PS/2 mouse port is /dev/psaux.

use /dev/
Since it is a PS/2 mouse, the Pointer section in XF86Config should probably
look something like this:
Section "Pointer"
Protocol"PS/2"
Device "/dev/psaux"
EndSection

I have a Microsoft PS/2 mouse, with a seperate port, not one of my serial
ports.
The XF86 config file points to /dev/mouse, which is a link to a serial
port, but, my mouse is not on S0/S1.
How should /dev/mouse be setup for this, in windows it is a separate port
at IRQ 12.
Thanks.
