Host: x86-64
Target: sh4
Summary: Wrong DirectFB ps2mouse limitation
Product: buildroot
Version: unspecified
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW

Priority: P5
Component: Other
AssignedTo: unassigned at buildroot.uclibc.org
ReportedBy: lionel.landwerlin at openwide.fr
CC: buildroot at uclibc.org

In Config.in of DirectFB, ps2mouse is only limited to x86 and x86-64. But the ps2mouse driver also works with usb mouses and so is not only limited to PC architecture.

--- Comment #2 from Sven Neumann <[email protected]> 2009-08-09 07:20:38 UTC --- That's probably correct. But wouldn't you better use the linux_input driver for an USB mouse?

That's probably correct. But wouldn't you better use the linux_input driver for an USB mouse?

I first thought that I needed the linux_input driver, and configured DirectFB with linux_input support but without ps2mouse support. And the mouse I connected to my board wasn't detected. So I tried the ps2mouse driver and it worked.

Maybe I missconfigured something in the kernel... I don't know.

--- Comment #4 from Sven Neumann <[email protected]> 2009-08-10 08:39:14 UTC --- Using a USB mouse with the linux_input driver works for me. Of course you need to have support for USB input devices enabled (CONFIG_USB_HID). But anyway, if the psmouse driver in DirectFB works on non-i386 platforms, then I see no reason not to allow users of buildroot to enable it.
