[ltp] UsbMouse and 2.6.10

[Olek A.]

Yes You are right - I had messed option device definitions.
But it worked in 2.4.28
2.6.10 has different /dev/ file structure so I made "cat  mouse*" to see both 
mice signal flow.
Now it`s good on 2.6.10 - I`ll see later how it will behave on 2.4.28.

Thanks !!!

I don't think it is a kernel problem,
The reason may be that you use the same input device for your usb mouse and
touchpad/trackpoint (/dev/input/mice).

You  should define seperate devices for your input devices in xorg.conf.
Then the usb mouse won't use the same acceleration as the trackpoint.

You can see wich device is used by which input device if you cat the the
devices (mouse0, mouse1) in /dev/input/ and move the mouse and/or trackpoint.

this is my config (the trackpoint will have 2D scrolling:

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier "Trackpoint"
        Driver "mouse"
        Option "Device" "/dev/input/mouse0"   !!!
 Option "Protocol" "PS/2"
        Option          "YAxisMapping"  "4 5"
        Option          "XAxismapping"  "6 7"
        Option          "EmulateWheelButton"    "2"
        Option          "EmulateWheel"  "true"
        Option          "Emulate3Buttons"
        Option          "EmulateTimeout"        "50"
EndSection


Section "InputDevice"

        Identifier      "USB Wheel Mouse"
        Driver          "mouse"
        Option          "Buttons" "7"
        Option          "Device" "/dev/input/mouse1"  !!!
        Option          "Name" "Autodetection"
        Option          "Protocol" "imps/2"
        Option          "Vendor" "Sysp"

EndSection
