I'm going to try doing this myself soon.
I'm not much of a Linux expert, but I'm guessing I might have to change
the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file slightly.
Currently one section is:
-----
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
EndSection
-----
I'm guessing
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
should become
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
I could be completely wrong of course. But I'll be trying it later on
tonight.
Cheers,
Tomasz Jaszkin
