[Linux-bruxelles] mouse MI-2100 question

[Eric Freyens]

Hello,

Yes, but we need for information :
Linux version :
Distribution :
XFree or Xorg :

If you have Linux 2.6 with XFree and Debian you must
select /dev/input/mice for your mouse.
You can use with Debian the configuration program as root:
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 
or (if you use xorg)
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
And select the correct device for your mouse.
For the other option do not change nothing.
If you don't have a Debian, you can modifie the file 
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4 

For the section about mouse you must have the same value:
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Configured Mouse"
        Driver          "mouse"
        Option          "CorePointer"
        Option          "Device"                "/dev/input/mice"
        Option          "Protocol"              "ImPS/2"
        Option          "ZAxisMapping"          "4 5"
EndSection


Best regard
