Hi Vladimir,
Worked , i think i will try to implement it within /usr/src/sys/dev/usb/input/
as soon as I find out where exactly : )
for now I made this and its working great now:
I compiled your code and copied to:
/usr/local/bin/eviocresp
In /etc/devd.conf
notify 100 {
match "system" "DEVFS";
match "subsystem" "CDEV";
match "type" "CREATE";
match "cdev" "input/event[0-9]+";
action "/usr/local/sbin/moused -m 2=3 -p /dev/$cdev -I
/var/run/moused.`echo $cdev | cut -c 7-`.pid";
action "/usr/local/bin/eviocresp /dev/$cdev";
};
detach 100 {
device-name "hms[0-9]+";
action "/bin/pkill moused"; <-- this part is need for the reason
explained below
};
BUG:
I had to put the following in rc.local since the first moused loaded always
have the cursor
"shaking" in the screen, even with the actual mouse totally stopped.
rc.local:
pkill moused
for file in /dev/input/event[0-9]*; do
/usr/local/sbin/moused -m 2=3 -p $file -I /var/run/moused.`echo $file |
cut -c 12-`.pid
Done
I don’t know why, but moused only gets its cursor pointer on screen "not
shaking" (I mean not moving) on the second
moused execution, you need to pkill and run it again in order to work properly.
Maybe it's getting attached to
the wrong /dev/event* on the first run. On the first run , I always have 4
moused processes , after I pkill and re-run it
I only get 2 (that’s when it works properly)
That I'm pretty sure it’s a bug, right?
Well, now I can attach and detach the mouse and keyboard as much as I want and
everything remains the same
Thank you again
