(Second try, this time with the correct mailing list address. Duh.)
Hi,
This patch makes the X and Y resolution in drivers/input/mousedev.c a
module parameter. In this way the screen resolution can be set by
using:
modprobe mousedev xres=1280 yres=1024
The configure-time resolution is used as a default resolution. The
patch is against 2.4.0-test10-pre3. Please consider applying.
Erik
