Trying to install the LIRC-mouse on SuSE 11.2. Lirc works fine but I cannot get the mouse going. The lircmd deamon is working, but when started this is the message:
lircmd: unknown protocol IntelliMouse#015
Also there is no mention or lircm in the Xorg.0.log - is this a problem - hal??
Any help would be very much appreciated
Has anyone got a functioning LIRC-mouse?
I had been using Windows to edit lircmd.conf, thus creating Dos line endings (#015) rather than Unix line endings. Fixing that I now have a functioning LIRC-mouse on the Mandriva partition.
On the SuSE partition I have the problem that /var/log/Xorg.0.log does not recognize the LIRC-mouse, i.e. the HAL proceedure has not functioned. Kernel problem?? Any suggestion?
Found a much easier way to get the Lirc-mouse working: Installed lirc 0.8.6-1.4 from the SuSE Factory, which supports uimput.
Then applied as root:
modeprobe uinput
lircmd --uinput
That all - the mousie is moving!
