Ahh, the PR... it looks like there is still no support for it even in the current XFree86 CVS. :( Should be a matter of adding a case for a few switch statements though, the PCI ID is already defined. It's possibly already supported in some PPC patches (the newer iMacs have such a chip). I don't think that the xserver-rage128 would support your chip either... > > > which is not yet supported by the ati driver (and the rage128 fails > > > miserably to install..). > > > > How does it fail to install? > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~>apt-get install xserver-rage128 Ah, I didn't understand you meant the 3.3.x server. > > /dev/input/mice is part of the New Input Layer (CONFIG_INPUT).

Note that the new input layer isn't only for USB, that's just how it came in. /dev/input/mice is a 'mixer' device which emits the sum of all mouse events in ImPS/2 protocol - very handy for hot-plugging mice. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer (MrCooper) \ Debian GNU/Linux (powerpc) developer CS student, Free Software enthusiast \ XFree86 and DRI project member
