Not really, athough I was surprised when I noticed that I have extra mouse devices. I would expect most people using /dev/input/mice which multiplexes data streams from all mouse-like devices. I think wacom users will be in for surprise because wacom requres you to specify exact device name the regular mouse is using. I actually think wacom X driver shoudl do what Synaptics does and grab evdev intrface. > > Vojtech, is it possible to detect whether a keyboard has scroll > > wheel(s) by its ID? > > What sort of keyboard has a scroll wheel??
