Hi! First, sorry if this is an oft-discussed topic, but I can't find archives for this list to check (can anyone give me a pointer?)
Second, I'm not subscribed to the list (most likely too much traffic for me), so please CC me an replies. Third, and most importantly, I was wonderin how to solve a little issue... I have a latop with a touchpad, and I bought a USB mouse for it. Now, I have it configured so if when X starts up, and both mice are plugged in, they both work. but, if I plug in the USB mouse after X starts, I have to restart X to get it to work, even tho the hotplug scripts detect and configure the mouse. Is there anyway to get X to rescan devices while running? Perhaps just take a signal that X currently ignores (USR1, HUP, USR2, something), and if it receives that signal then rescan input devices. Then hotplug scripts could signal any running X servers. So, if I plug in my USB mouse, boom it works in X. If I unplug, it just wouldn't work, and the hotplug scripts would signal X again so it could complete remove the device. And so on. Does this sound nice for X 4.2 or something? Or is there another way to get this done already? Thanks! Sean Etc. _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
