I've recompiled the kernel with all mouse types enabled, with the mouse IRQ
at 2 where it is configured. The configuration of the mouse according to
msd is: (This is a bus mouse in an ATI card)
Mouse Hardware InPort Mouse
Driver Manufacturer Logitech
DOS Driver Type InPort Mouse
DOS Driver Version 5.00
Microsoft Driver Version 6.02
Mouse IRQ 2
Number of Mouse Buttons 2
Horizontal Sensitivity 50
Mouse to Cursor Ratio 1 : 1
Vertical Sensitivity 50
Mouse to Cursor Ratio 1 : 1
Threshold Speed 53
Mouse Language English
Which mouse type should be selected in Xconfig? I've tried pretty much all
of them, with no mouse control. Either I boot xwindows without a mouse, or
I get a "Device or resource busy", or I get a "Invalid parameter".
The logical choice seems to be to use the Logitech mouse type, but that is
where I get the message saying some kind of parameter is wrong. What
parameters should I have set up?
As an alternative, is there a window manager available anywhere which allows
mouse movement under cursor controls? Perhaps via the numeric keypad?
