/dev/mouse is just a symlink to the real device. What kind of mouse do you have? PS/2 are at /dev/psaux, and serial are at /dev/ttySx. I've never played with USB mice, but I'm sure someone can point you to the relevant device file for them. All this is assuming you don't use devfs, of course. Once you figure out which actual device your mouse is at, you can create the /dev/mouse symlink so that other apps that look for it can find it easier. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Stephen Gran | In war, truth is the first casualty. | | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | -- U Thant | | http://www.lobefin.net/~steve | | --------------------------------------------------------------------------
