Myabe define 2 different layouts, thats the way i do it on my laptop (still not tested on mdk9)

This should work, providing both of your mice at working separatly.

The "SendCoreEvents" will mean you have "interference" eg on a laptop knocking the touch pad will mean your cursor might get moved while typing and knocking the pad.

I used the info below to get my usb mouse working in Mdk 8.2 :

However it doesn't work in mandrake 9, only the usb
mouse works.

Dear Experts...
I have been trying to install a second mouse in my laptop....
It comes with a touch-pad-mouse, and I like a second one (usb-mouse...), but
tools like "mousedrake", Harddrake2, ... found just one of them ...
Can I have both mouses working at the same time ?

Not sure if this will help, but you can try :)
