deli:xorg configuration mouse default wrong

Date:2008/05/06 09:05

version: 0.7.2

severity: not a problem for experienced Linux users, probably stymies beginners

The xorg configuration tool suggests /dev/input/mice as the mouse device, but if that is used, X refuses to start. What actually works is /dev/psaux. This was on an old Toshiba Tecra 740CDT laptop with a Logitech mouse, but it is probably the same on any machine with a mouse connected to the PS/2 port.
