I dual-boot RH7.3 on my laptop to do my SANS talks.  I have a really
nice RF wireless presentation mouse with a USB interface.  The only
problem is that XFree86 apparently only lets me have a single mouse
device-- thus I can use either the wireless mouse or the laptop's
internal trackpoint (PS/2 interface), but not both at the same time
(even more galling, I note that booting my Windows partition allows me
to use both devices simultaneously).

This sucks, because while the wireless mouse is great for navigating
through slides, the pointer control is terrible.  When I'm doing demos
at the keyboard, I really want to use the built-in pointing device.

Does anybody have thoughts on hacks to get this all working under Linux?
I offer the spectacular reward of one Deer Run Associates button-down
oxford shirt to whoever has the clue I need to get this going.  Cheers!
