.SH DESCRIPTION
.B vmmouse
is an XFree86 input driver for mice. The driver supports most available
mouse types and interfaces. USB mice are only supported on some OSs,
and the level of support for PS/2 mice depends on the OS.
.PP
The
.B vmmouse
driver functions as a pointer input device, and may be used as the
X server's core pointer. Multiple mice are supported by multiple
instances of this driver.
.SH CONFIGURATION DETAILS
Please refer to __xconfigfile__(__filemansuffix__) for general configuration
details and for options that can be used with all input drivers. This
section only covers configuration details specific to this driver.
.PP
The driver will automatically detect if the vmmouse device is present and if
it is not, it will load the regular
.B mouse
driver and attempt to fall back to it. There are no
.B vmmouse
specific options, but if you set
.B mouse(__drivermansuffix__)
options, they will be passed on.
.PP
See the
.B mouse(__drivermansuffix__)
man page for details on these options.
