moused mouse daemon
Usage:
moused [-3DPRcdfs] [-F rate] [-r resolution] [-S baudrate] [-C threshold]
[-m N=M] [-z target] [-t mousetype] -p port
Most common options are:
-3 Emulate the third (middle) button for 2-button mice. It is emu-
lated by pressing the left and right physical buttons simultane-
ously.
-p port Use port to communicate with the mouse.
-t type
microsoft Microsoft (2-button) serial mouse protocol.
intellimouse Microsoft IntelliMouse protocol. Genius Net-
Mouse, ASCII Mie Mouse, Logitech MouseMan+ and
FirstMouse+ use this protocol too.
mousesystems MouseSystems 5-byte protocol. 3-button mice may
use this protocol.
mmseries MM Series mouse protocol.
logitech Logitech mouse protocol. Note that this is for
old Logitech models. mouseman or intellimouse
should be specified for newer models.
mouseman Logitech MouseMan and TrackMan protocol. Some
3-button mice may be compatible with this proto-
col. Note that MouseMan+ and FirstMouse+ use
intellimouse protocol rather than this one.
glidepoint ALPS GlidePoint protocol.
thinkingmouse Kensington ThinkingMouse protocol.
mmhittab Hitachi tablet protocol.
3-button serial mice may have a small switch to choose between
``MS'' and ``PC'', or ``2'' and ``3''. ``MS'' or ``2'' usually mean
the microsoft protocol. ``PC'' or ``3'' will choose the
mousesystems protocol.
To test if the selected protocol type is correct for the given mouse, en-
able the mouse pointer in the current virtual console:
vidcontrol -m on
start the mouse daemon in the foreground mode:
moused -f -p _selected_port_ -t _selected_protocol_
and see if the mouse pointer travels correctly according to the mouse
movement. Then try cut & paste features by clicking the left, right and
middle buttons. Type ^C to stop the command.
