    And again, the previously-unforwarded-to-the-list bit.

    I'm using the /dev/mouse device for X with protocol 'auto'.

    Here's the relevant portion of my XF86Config:

    Section "InputDevice"
            Identifier "Mouse0"
            Driver "mouse"
            Option "Protocol" "auto"
            Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
    EndSection

    Unfortunately, I'm not currently physically at the machine (I only
    have ssh access currently), so I can't try this stuff right away.
    However, I will try your suggestions when I'm next at the machine
    later today.

    (Also, I'm now realizing that my subject for this thread was wrong, so
    I've edited it a bit.)
