Hi, Ron:
I did not see any answers to the three questions you posed in this
post. I'm not sure I can answer them, either. I am posting the
relevant sections of /etc/X11/XF86Config, and /etc.XF86Config
from the /etc/X11XF86Config file:
Section "InputDevice"
Driver "mouse"
Identifier "Mouse[1]"
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
Option "Protocol" "imps/2"
EndSection
and from the /etc/XF86Config file:
Section "Pointer"
Device "/dev/psaux"
ZAxisMapping 4 5
Protocol "imps/2"
EndSection
Now I am wondering if you'll have to go back to the Installation
routine to see if you can change the mouse (without doing a complete
re-install. Your mouse is a USB device, and mine is a PS/2, so the
entries in the config file will be different, of course. (Did your
mouse come with a USB/PS/2 cable adapter?)
My hunch is that the /etc/XF86Config is the one you want to edit, since
it was automatically generated by SaX during the installation.
Sorry I can't help.
Regards,
Glenn
