.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
driver provides support for the PS/2 mouse style pointing device.
|
2001-07-14 19:41:16 +00:00
|
|
|
Currently there can be only one
|
1997-12-07 08:46:56 +00:00
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
device node in the system.
|
1999-02-07 05:40:14 +00:00
|
|
|
As the PS/2 mouse port is located
|
|
|
|
at the auxiliary port of the keyboard controller,
|
2001-07-14 19:41:16 +00:00
|
|
|
the keyboard controller driver,
|
1999-02-07 05:40:14 +00:00
|
|
|
.Nm atkbdc ,
|
|
|
|
must also be configured in the kernel.
|
2001-07-14 19:41:16 +00:00
|
|
|
Note that there is currently no provision of changing the
|
1997-02-05 15:07:37 +00:00
|
|
|
.Em irq
|
1996-12-06 01:58:14 +00:00
|
|
|
number.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
1997-12-07 08:46:56 +00:00
|
|
|
Basic PS/2 style pointing device has two or three buttons.
|
|
|
|
Some devices may have a roller or a wheel and/or additional buttons.
|
|
|
|
.Ss Device Resolution
|
|
|
|
The PS/2 style pointing device usually has several grades of resolution,
|
2000-03-01 14:50:24 +00:00
|
|
|
that is, sensitivity of movement.
|
|
|
|
They are typically 25, 50, 100 and 200
|
|
|
|
pulse per inch.
|
2001-07-14 19:41:16 +00:00
|
|
|
Some devices may have finer resolution.
|
2000-03-01 14:50:24 +00:00
|
|
|
The current resolution can be changed at runtime.
|
|
|
|
The
|
1996-12-06 01:58:14 +00:00
|
|
|
.Nm
|
1997-12-07 08:46:56 +00:00
|
|
|
driver allows the user to initially set the resolution
|
2001-07-14 19:41:16 +00:00
|
|
|
via the driver flag
|
2001-08-07 15:48:51 +00:00
|
|
|
(see
|
|
|
|
.Sx "DRIVER CONFIGURATION" )
|
1997-12-07 08:46:56 +00:00
|
|
|
or change it later via the
|
|
|
|
.Xr ioctl 2
|
|
|
|
command
|
|
|
|
.Dv MOUSE_SETMODE
|
2001-08-07 15:48:51 +00:00
|
|
|
(see
|
|
|
|
.Sx IOCTLS ) .
|
1997-12-07 08:46:56 +00:00
|
|
|
.Ss Report Rate
|
|
|
|
Frequency, or report rate, at which the device sends movement
|
|
|
|
and button state reports to the host system is also configurable.
|
|
|
|
The PS/2 style pointing device typically supports 10, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100
|
|
|
|
and 200 reports per second.
|
|
|
|
60 or 100 appears to be the default value for many devices.
|
|
|
|
Note that when there is no movement and no button has changed its state,
|
|
|
|
the device won't send anything to the host system.
|
|
|
|
The report rate can be changed via an ioctl call.
|
|
|
|
.Ss Operation Levels
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
2001-07-14 19:41:16 +00:00
|
|
|
driver has three levels of operation.
|
1997-12-07 08:46:56 +00:00
|
|
|
The current operation level can be set via an ioctl call.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
At the level zero the basic support is provided; the device driver will report
|
2001-07-14 19:41:16 +00:00
|
|
|
horizontal and vertical movement of the attached device
|
1997-12-07 08:46:56 +00:00
|
|
|
and state of up to three buttons.
|
|
|
|
The movement and status are encoded in a series of fixed-length data packets
|
2001-08-07 15:48:51 +00:00
|
|
|
(see
|
|
|
|
.Sx "Data Packet Format" ) .
|
2001-07-14 19:41:16 +00:00
|
|
|
This is the default level of operation and the driver is initially
|
1997-12-07 08:46:56 +00:00
|
|
|
at this level when opened by the user program.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
2001-07-14 19:41:16 +00:00
|
|
|
The operation level one, the `extended' level, supports a roller (or wheel),
|
1997-12-07 08:46:56 +00:00
|
|
|
if any, and up to 11 buttons.
|
|
|
|
The movement of the roller is reported as movement along the Z axis.
|
|
|
|
8 byte data packets are sent to the user program at this level.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
At the operation level two, data from the pointing device is passed to the
|
2001-07-14 19:41:16 +00:00
|
|
|
user program as is.
|
1997-12-07 08:46:56 +00:00
|
|
|
Modern PS/2 type pointing devices often use proprietary data format.
|
|
|
|
Therefore, the user program is expected to have
|
|
|
|
intimate knowledge about the format from a particular device when operating
|
|
|
|
the driver at this level.
|
|
|
|
This level is called `native' level.
|
|
|
|
.Ss Data Packet Format
|
|
|
|
Data packets read from the
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
driver are formatted differently at each operation level.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
A data packet from the PS/2 mouse style pointing device
|
|
|
|
is three bytes long at the operation level zero:

|
.It Byte 3
|
2001-07-14 19:41:16 +00:00

1997-01-15 12:04:11 +00:00
|
|
|
-256 through 255.
|
|

|
|
At the level one, a data packet is encoded
|
|
|
|
in the standard format
|
2001-07-14 19:41:16 +00:00
|
|
|
.Dv MOUSE_PROTO_SYSMOUSE
|
1997-12-07 08:46:56 +00:00

.Xr mouse 4 .
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
2001-07-14 19:41:16 +00:00
|
|
|
At the level two, native level, there is no standard on the size and format
|
1997-12-07 08:46:56 +00:00
|
|
|
of the data packet.
|
|
|
|
.Ss Acceleration
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
driver can somewhat `accelerate' the movement of the pointing device.
|
2001-07-14 19:41:16 +00:00
|
|
|
The faster you move the device, the further the pointer
|
|
|
|
travels on the screen.
|
|
|
|
The driver has an internal variable which governs the effect of
|
2000-03-01 14:50:24 +00:00
|
|
|
the acceleration.
|
2001-07-14 19:41:16 +00:00
|
|
|
Its value can be modified via the driver flag
|
1997-12-07 08:46:56 +00:00
|
|
|
or via an ioctl call.
|
|
|
|
.Ss Device Number
|
1996-12-06 01:58:14 +00:00
|
|
|
The minor device number of the
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
is made up of:
|
|
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
|
|
minor = (`unit' << 1) | `non-blocking'
|
|
|
|
.Ed
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
where `unit' is the device number (usually 0) and the `non-blocking' bit
|
2001-07-14 19:41:16 +00:00
|
|
|
is set to indicate ``don't block waiting for mouse input,
|
1997-01-15 12:04:11 +00:00
|
|
|
return immediately''.
|
2001-07-14 19:41:16 +00:00
|
|
|
The `non-blocking' bit should be set for \fIXFree86\fP,
|
1996-12-06 01:58:14 +00:00
|
|
|
therefore the minor device number usually used for \fIXFree86\fP is 1.

|
|
The

|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
driver will attempt to reset the pointing device during the boot process.
|
|
|
|
It sometimes takes a long while before the device will respond after
|
2000-03-01 14:50:24 +00:00
|
|
|
reset.
|
|
|
|
These options control how long the driver should wait before
|
|
|
|
it eventually gives up waiting.

This flag specifies the resolution of the pointing device.
|
2000-03-01 14:50:24 +00:00
|
|
|
It must be zero through four.
|
|
|
|
The greater the value

2001-07-14 19:41:16 +00:00

is, the finer resolution the device will select.
|

|
|
|
|
This flag controls the amount of acceleration effect.
|
2001-07-14 19:41:16 +00:00
|
|
|
The smaller the value of this flag is, more sensitive the movement becomes.
|

|
|
The minimum value allowed, thus the value for the most sensitive setting,
|
2000-03-01 14:50:24 +00:00
|
|
|
is one.
|
|
|
|
Setting this flag to zero will completely disables the

acceleration effect.

|
1997-01-15 12:04:11 +00:00

|
The
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
1997-12-07 08:46:56 +00:00
|
|
|
driver tries to detect the first byte of the data packet by checking
|
2000-03-01 14:50:24 +00:00
|
|
|
the bit pattern of that byte.
|
|
|
|
Although this method should work with most
|
1997-12-07 08:46:56 +00:00
|
|
|
PS/2 pointing devices, it may interfere with some devices which are not
|
|
|
|
so compatible with known devices.
|
2001-07-14 19:41:16 +00:00
|
|
|
If you think your pointing device is not functioning as expected,
|
1998-01-24 12:14:13 +00:00
|
|
|
and the kernel frequently prints the following message to the console,

|
|
|
|
The

|
|
|
.Nm
|
|

|
driver will not try to identify the model of the pointing device and
|
|
|
|
will not carry out model-specific initialization.
|
|
|
|
The device should always act like a standard PS/2 mouse without such
|
|
|
|
initialization.
|
2001-07-14 19:41:16 +00:00
|
|
|
Extra features, such as wheels and additional buttons, won't be
|
1999-01-26 10:01:01 +00:00
|
|
|
recognized by the
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
driver.
|
|
|
|
.It bit 10 NORESET
|
|
|
|
When this flag is set, the
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
driver won't reset the pointing device when initializing the device.
|
2000-11-14 11:20:58 +00:00

|
|
|
is started after another OS has run, the pointing device will inherit
|
|
|
|
settings from the previous OS.
|
|
|
|
However, because there is no way for the
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
driver to know the settings, the device and the driver may not
|
|
|
|
work correctly.
|
|
|
|
The flag should never be necessary under normal circumstances.
|
|
|
|
.It bit 11 FORCETAP
|
|
|
|
Some pad devices report as if the fourth button is pressed
|
|
|
|
when the user `taps' the surface of the device (see
|
|
|
|
.Sx CAVEATS ) .
|
|
|
|
This flag will make the
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
driver assume that the device behaves this way.
|
|
|
|
Without the flag, the driver will assume this behavior
|
|
|
|
for ALPS GlidePoint models only.
|

This flag makes

It should never be necessary under normal circumstances.

|
not operable immediately after the system `resumes' from

There are reports that

|
|

|
waking up the device quickly.
|
2001-07-14 19:41:16 +00:00

|
|
This flag will enable a piece of code in the
|
2000-04-02 08:25:34 +00:00

.Nm
|
|
|
|

device.
|

.It bit 14 INITAFTERSUSPEND

|
|

This flag adds more drastic action for the above problem.
|
2000-04-03 09:40:04 +00:00

It will cause the
