This input opens a file (usually a device file or pipe) and reads mouse protocol data from it.
Indicates what type of mouse is attached. The following types are supported:
Two button Microsoft compatible mice.
Serial Intellimouse or compatible. Supports four buttons for mice like the Logitech MouseMan+.
MouseSystems compatible (used in most 3-button mice).
Used in older Logitech serial mice.
MM series mice.
Sun mice. The protocol is the same as 'msc' protocol except it used only 3 bytes per packet.
MouseMan protocol.
Non-PS/2 busmice.
IMPS2 that doesn't choke on USB (no init attempted).
PS/2 mice (most non-serial mice use this protocol)
PS/2 IntelliMouse and compatible (not USB, see lnxusb for that.)
PS/2 Logitech MouseMan+ and compatible.
(Most of the strings supported by GPM, SVGAlib and XFree can be specified. If you find one that isn't, please report)
The special value "auto" tells input-linux-mouse to read ~/.ggi/input/linux-mouse, and if that fails, $sysconfdir/ggi/input/linux-mouse. If none of the two files are found, input-linux-mouse tries to auto-detect the mouse, and as a last resort uses the mouse information specified in /etc/vga/libvga.config.
The file to read mouse protocol data from; defaults to /dev/mouse.
Baud rate of mouse device
Turns off RTS if set to "0"; turns RTS on if set to a number greater than 0.
