Robin,
I'm sorry but you were supposed to change the 'type=' line in
/etc/gpm.conf, not 'device='. I see it is not clear from anything I
wrote line in the gpm.conf file you were supposed to change. Please
look in my last email for the list of protocol types to use and try
again. Let me know what you find...
Later,
Mike Simons
ps:
I'm beginning to think that ps2 and imps2 protocols are incompatible,
do to some testing I was doing here today. I'm thinking about
a another solution of getting them both working. I'll have to do
some tests on a machine here first before commenting, since the lag
time here is becoming intolerable, fortunately I have mice available
that support both imps2 and ps2. Getting something working here and
pasting the results on vox-tech may be less painful.
