[Bug 9068] Re: Serial mouse/mice not autodetected
Just to add, there are those of us who use special pointing devices (myself included), such as for the handicapped or special medical needs or in specific locations such as a shop floor where a mouse would not work because of environmental issues (dirt, space, etc.). Some of these pointing devices (trackballs, joystick like devices etc.) are old and hard to replace and of course many emulate a serial mouse. For some this isn't just a convenience issue, it is an accessiblity issue. -- Serial mouse/mice not autodetected https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/9068 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 9068] Re: Serial mouse/mice not autodetected
FYI, Red Hat has a mouse config utility that handles serial mice: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/install- guide/s1-mouseconfig.html Also, Mandriva handles a serial mouse, but appears to also be having issues now which would indicate it's an xorg problem in general: https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=53544 ** Bug watch added: Mandriva Linux #53544 http://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=53544 -- Serial mouse/mice not autodetected https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/9068 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
