Thomas Roell sent me email in response to my recent posting about using
a Logitech mouse and the PVGA1A driver with his X386 server. I thought
you all out in netland would be interested in his answers:
me> Has anyone out there hacked Roell's X11R4 X386 server to work properly with
me> a Logitech bus mouse? The documentation for the server doesn't mention
me> support for the Logitech bus mouse, so I just assumed that it was absent.
me> Is there a simple workaround for this?
Roell> I think if you use the 'BusMouse' driver this should work.
me> Also, the documentation for the server claims that the PVGA1A (Paradise
me> 1024 VGA board) support is "broken." This is the graphics board that I have
me> in my machine. Has anyone out there gotten the server to work in
me> 640x480x256 with this video board?
Roell> My Beta-Tester for PVGA1A stated that the driver is usable, but has some
Roell> bugs, which are not SOO serious.
