The patch supports using the X10 Mouse Remote in both stand-alone and
pass-through configurations, so you can plug your mouse and remote into the
same serial port, use the mouse for X, and use the remote for other apps
like Fxtv. For instance, we can now control fxtv via the remote control
just like a TV : change channels, mute, increase volume, zoom video,
freeze frame 8)
The mouse events are channeled through the syscons/sysmouse I/F like
normal, and the remote buttons are "syphoned off" to a UNIX-domain stream
socket (defined as _PATH_MOUSEREMOTE in <machine/mouse.h>) for a
remote-aware app to grab and use.
