Here's the relevant parts of my XF86Config which works with both the pad and the usb mouse at the same time.
Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Default" Screen "Screen0" InputDevice "Mouse" "CorePointer" InputDevice "Keyboard" "CoreKeyboard" InputDevice "ExternalMouse" "SendCoreEvents" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "ExternalMouse" Option "SendCoreEvents" "true" Option "Protocol" "Auto" Option "Device" "/dev/usbmouse" Option "Buttons" "5" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" Driver "mouse" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "PS/2" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Buttons" "5" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection In addition I use hotplug to make this work. I have a little quirk, the usb mouse doesn't work in X until I've moved it around a while, and sometimes I need to unplug and replug it. Haven't bothered to look more at that yet though. Think the important parts are the "SendCoreEvents" flag, and the use of hotplug. --Erik -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
