If you're using a new version of Slackware, you may not have to do anything. The new version of X is pretty good at auto-detecting things.
Otherwise, you might have to change the input device from something like /dev/mouse to /dev/input/mice.

Internally speaking, for your motherboard bus. Would it be possible for a usb standard to be used in place of the PCI or PCIe bus that is now nearly standard on all PC's? If not, why wouldn't this work? (8 Replies)

NAME
input-linux-mouse - Direct mouse input
SYNOPSIS
input-linux-mouse: [<mousetype>] [,<file>] [,[b<bauds>][r<rts>][d<dtr>]]
DESCRIPTION
This input opens a file (usually a device file or pipe) and reads mouse protocol data from it.
OPTIONS
mousetype
Indicates what type of mouse is attached. The following types are supported:
o ms, Microsoft : Two button Microsoft compatible mice.
o ms3, IntelliMouse, mman+ : Serial Intellimouse or compatible. Supports four buttons for mice like the Logitech MouseMan+.
o MouseSystems, msc : MouseSystems compatible (used in most 3-button mice).
o Logitech, logi : Used in older Logitech serial mice.
o mm, MMSeries : MM series mice.
o Sun : Sun mice. The protocol is the same as 'msc' protocol except it used only 3 bytes per packet.
o MouseMan, mman : MouseMan protocol.
o BusMouse, bm : Non-PS/2 busmice.
o LinuxUSB, lnxusb : IMPS2 that doesn't choke on USB (no init attempted).
o ps2, PS/2 : PS/2 mice (most non-serial mice use this protocol)
o imps2, IMPS/2 : PS/2 IntelliMouse and compatible (not USB, see lnxusb for that.)
o mmanps2, MouseManPlusPS/2 : PS/2 Logitech MouseMan+ and compatible.
Most of the strings supported by GPM, SVGAlib and XFree can be specified. If you find one that isn't, please report.
The special value auto tells input-linux-mouse to read ~/.ggi/input/linux-mouse, and if that fails, $sysconfdir/ggi/input/linux-
mouse. If none of the two files are found, input-linux-mouse tries to auto-detect the mouse, and as a last resort uses the mouse
information specified in /etc/vga/libvga.config.
file The file to read mouse protocol data from; defaults to /dev/mouse.
baud Baud rate of mouse device.
rts Turns off RTS if set to 0; turns RTS on if set to a number greater than 0.
dtr Turns off DTR if set to 0; turns DTR on if set to a number greater than 0.
FEATURES
o Generates evPtr* events.
FILES
~/.ggi/input/linux-mouse and $sysconfdir/ggi/input/linux-mouse consists of the following entries:
mouse mousetype
mdev file
where mousetype and file has the same semantics as the invocation options of the same names.
