I do not know about software but I do know about hardware. It seems
that, in my case, the driver "mouse" is picking up the wrong physical
layer. Presumably "Protocol" refers to the software protocol and not the
physical layer. If it was a real-time op. sys. I would expect to refer
to a different driver for a mouse connected to the USB bus (or lower
level driver). If the system was able to respond to either mouse, why
are there not 2 entries under "InputDevice". One for each type of mouse.
But perhaps Linux works in a different way. I am very new to Linux. I
have been asked to put a comment here so that "it" can be triaged
(whatever that means).
Fyi the mother board is a VA-503+ from 1st Mainboard and has a VIA
Apollo MVP3 chipset. The manual is 1998. It is fitted with an AMD K6
processor.
My xorg.conf file reads:-
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Configured Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "ZAxisMapping "4 5"
Option "Emulate3Buttons "true"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true" # added to force
multiple pointing devices to be recognised
EndSection
