Mickael, Yes, you can use a USB mouse. There's a document on the LTSP.org contrib page describing how to do it. The doc is a bit dated, but the bulk of what you need is there. The main thing is you need to load a couple of kernel modules to get at the USB mouse. Jim McQuillan [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[Ltsp-discuss] USB mice

2002-11-13 Thread Michael Spiceland
Is there support for USB mice? I tried changing the mouse device in the lts.conf to /dev/usbmouse, but that makes X fail. I did a ls and there was no /dev/usbmouse. Any suggestions on getting this to work? This mouse on other linux machines is /dev/usbmouse and uses IMPS/2. Thanks, -- Mich
