That's not what I asked. :) I asked if /dev/psaux now also "gives the events of all mice handled by the input layer, which handles most if not all input in 2.6 kernels." If that is not the case, I do not see how he can be getting doubled events from /dev/psaux and /dev/input/mice. -- G. Branden Robinson | Suffer before God and ye shall be Debian GNU/Linux | redeemed.
