16 vmmouse is an XFree86 input driver for mice. The driver supports most
17 available mouse types and interfaces. USB mice are only supported on
18 some OSs, and the level of support for PS/2 mice depends on the OS.
19
20 The vmmouse driver functions as a pointer input device, and may be used
21 as the X server's core pointer. Multiple mice are supported by multiā
22 ple instances of this driver.

25 Please refer to xorg.conf(5) for general configuration details and for
26 options that can be used with all input drivers. This section only
27 covers configuration details specific to this driver.

29 The driver will automatically detect if the vmmouse device is present
30 and if it is not, it will load the regular mouse driver and attempt to
31 fall back to it. There are no vmmouse specific options, but if you set
32 mouse(4) options, they will be passed on.
