Anyone using a Logitech TrackMan under SCO UNIX/386??? What driver are you using and does acceleration and sensitivity work? The 'Logitech Serial Mouse' device option under mkdev mouse does not work (cursor erratic and random mouse downs). Thanks! ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Patrick Stickler University of Helsinki stickler@hylka.helsinki.fi (BIX: stickler) Nokia Research Center stickler@pepper.rc.nokia.fi ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

I've used a TrackMan with SCO Xsight. Except for one detail, it interfaces the same as a 3-button Logitech serial mouse. The Trackman apparently needs to be powered up for a while before it will accept an initialization string. I have been able to get the Trackman to work by doing: sleep 9999 >/dev/tty1a& before starting a server. Unfortunately, my favorite server freaks out when this is done. Your mileage may vary. A long term solution would be to keep the mouse powered up all the time, or change the mouse handler to increase the delay between powering up the mouse and sending the initialization string.
