SYNOPSIS
input-linux-mouse: [
DESCRIPTION
This input opens a file (usually a device file or pipe) and reads mouse protocol data from it.
OPTIONS
mousetype
Indicates what type of mouse is attached. The following types are supported:
|
• |
ms, Microsoft : Two button Microsoft compatible mice. |
||
|
• |
ms3, IntelliMouse, mman+ : Serial Intellimouse or compatible. Supports four buttons for mice like the Logitech MouseMan+. |
||
|
• |
MouseSystems, msc : MouseSystems compatible (used in most 3-button mice). |
||
|
• |
Logitech, logi : Used in older Logitech serial mice. |
||
|
• |
mm, MMSeries : MM series mice. |
||
|
• |
Sun : Sun mice. The protocol is the same as ’msc’ protocol except it used only 3 bytes per packet. |
||
|
• |
MouseMan, mman : MouseMan protocol. |
||
|
• |
BusMouse, bm : Non-PS/2 busmice. |
||
|
• |
LinuxUSB, lnxusb : IMPS2 that doesn’t choke on USB (no init attempted). |
||
|
• |
ps2, PS/2 : PS/2 mice (most non-serial mice use this protocol) |
||
|
• |
imps2, IMPS/2 : PS/2 IntelliMouse and compatible (not USB, see lnxusb for that.) |
||
|
• |
mmanps2, MouseManPlusPS/2 : PS/2 Logitech MouseMan+ and compatible. |
Most of the strings supported by GPM, SVGAlib and XFree can be specified. If you find one that isn’t, please report.
The special value auto tells input-linux-mouse to read ~/.ggi/input/linux-mouse, and if that fails, $sysconfdir/ggi/input/linux-mouse. If none of the two files are found, input-linux-mouse tries to auto-detect the mouse, and as a last resort uses the mouse information specified in /etc/vga/libvga.config.
|
file |
The file to read mouse protocol data from; defaults to /dev/mouse. |
||
|

Baud rate of mouse device. |
||
|
rts |
Turns off RTS if set to 0; turns RTS on if set to a number greater than 0. |
||
|
dtr |
Turns off DTR if set to 0; turns DTR on if set to a number greater than 0. |
