Troubleshooting Mouse Problems

The following sections discuss troubleshooting mouse hardware or software issues.

Local USB Mouse and Linux

If you are running Linux on your server and the local mouse is USB, your mouse will not work in Remote Console. To correct this issue, configure the system to use two mice. Add the following lines to your XF86Config file:

In the ServerLayout section, add the following:

InputDevice

"Mouse1" "SendCoreEvents"

For example:

Section "ServerLayout"

Identifier "Default Layout"

Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0

InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"

InputDevice "Mouse1" "SendCoreEvents"

InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"

EndSection

In the InputDevice section, add the following:

Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse1"

Driver "mouse" Option"Protocol" "PS/2" Option"Device" "/dev/psaux" Option"Emulate3Buttons" "yes"

EndSection

After updating the configuration file, you have two InputDevice sections. Each section lists information for the mouse. Adjust the identifier to match the label you used in the ServerLayout section.
