This works for me: Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "X.org Configured" Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 InputDevice "Trackpad" "CorePointer" InputDevice "USBMouse" "SendCoreEvents" InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Trackpad" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "auto" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" Option "Resolution" "64" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "USBMouse" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "auto" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mouse2" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" Option "Resolution" "64" EndSection The trackpad works always, the mouse works when it is plugged in, even after starting X. -- Neil Bothwick I don't suffer from insanity.
