- I have a Microsoft InPort mouse, and it certainly doesn't work. However,
- Nathan Laredo advises me that InPort mice are really just serial mice.
- My InPort mouse card uses IRQ 5 and according to the docs uses port address
- 0x23C-0x23F, so i tried:
-
- % setserial /dev/tty2 0x23C 5
-
- and locked up the system quite nicely! I have no idea what to do next...
- any ideas ??
