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

              o   compatible. Supports four buttons for mice like the Logitech
                  MouseMan+.

              o   most 3-button mice).

              o

              o

              o   protocol)

              o   USB, see lnxusb for that.)

              o   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.
