Hi, i've a laptop with a touchpad that can be easely configured on X,
my question is how can i configure it to enable an external mouse WITH
scrollwheel. The problem is that both the touchpad and the external
mouse are PS2.
my current config is:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "External Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "Protocol" "PS/2"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
in order to enable the scrollwheel i've to change the Protocol to
ImPS/2, but then, if i've no external mouse on /dev/psaux (i'm using
the touchpad) it's impraticable to use it, because the mouse pointer
is always junping to the lower left part of the screen...
Can someone tel me how to setup two mouses on the same device, using
two diferrent protocols?
Thanks!
Paulo.
I had the same problem...
first, create 2 Sections "InputDevice" for each mouse like this
for your internal mouse :
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Internal Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "Protocol" "PS/2"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" <-------- if you
have no wheel, maybe you don't need this
EndSection
for your external mousse
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "External Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" <-- check
for your write device
Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2" <------ here
for imwheel
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
second, create to Section "ServerLayout" as well like this
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "server1"
Screen "Screen 1" <------------------- here put your own Screen
identifier
InputDevice "Internal Mouse" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Keyboard1" "CoreKeyboard" <--- here put your own
keyboard identifier
EndSection
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "server2"
Screen "Screen 1" <------------------- here put your own screen
identifier
InputDevice "External Mouse" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Keyboard1" "CoreKeyboard"<---- here put your own
keyboard identifier
EndSection
and create 2 alias in the file .bashrc (or the .filerc for your shell)
for the fisrt ServeurLayout
alias x='startx -- -layout server1'
or
alias x='startx'
in that case, startx will take the first serverLayout it will find in
the XF86Config file
and for the second ServerLayout
alias x2='startx -- -layout server2'
but in that way, you have to boot in console mode and lauch startx by hand
