Why have you got two mice on the same machine?

If you are a programmer you can probably get that information from the
mouse events, but I suspect it is more likely that you will need to setup
your own call back function/s in response to one of the mice drivers. But
that would be a separate mouse for your application rather than a system
mouse.
