VMMOUSE(4)						     Kernel Interfaces Manual							VMMOUSE(4)

NAME

       vmmouse - VMware Mouse input driver

SYNOPSIS

       Section "InputDevice"
	 Identifier "idevname"
	 Driver "vmmouse"
	 ...
       EndSection

DESCRIPTION

       vmmouse	is  an XFree86 input driver for mice.  The driver supports most available mouse types and interfaces.  USB mice are only supported
       on some OSs, and the level of support for PS/2 mice depends on the OS.

       The vmmouse driver functions as a pointer input device, and may be used as the X server's core pointer.	Multiple  mice	are  supported	by
       multiple instances of this driver.

CONFIGURATION DETAILS

       Please  refer to xorg.conf(5) for general configuration details and for options that can be used with all input drivers.  This section only
       covers configuration details specific to this driver.

       The driver will automatically detect if the vmmouse device is present and if it is not, it will load the regular mouse driver  and  attempt
       to fall back to it. There are no vmmouse specific options, but if you set mouse(4) options, they will be passed on.

       See the mouse(4) man page for details on these options.
