Hi folks,

I'm trying to use a PS/2 mouse in Xfbdev, but I alwayas get problems. 
First, I tried to relink /dev/mouse to /dev/psaux and restarted the X 
server, but it didn't work. Actually, it conflicted (I think) with my 
PS/2 keyboard (of course I'm pluging them in the right conectors). 
Whenever I touched the keyboard, the pointer moved. Then I tried to just 
remove the /dev/mouse, couse I saw somewhere that if there is a 
/dev/mouse, a /dev/psaux or /dev/input/mice, the Xfbdev would 
automatically recognize my mouse. The same happened, whenever I touched 
the keyboard, the pointer moved on the screen. I tried then to use gpm 
with the -R option. It worked OK while in the text mode, but when I 
started the Xfbdev, the same problem occured. How can I fix this? 

Thanx,

Edo.
