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.
The 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.
Please refer to xorg.conf(4) 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.
The driver will automatically detect if the vmmouse device is present
and if it is not, it will load the regular mouse driver and attempt
to fall back to it. There are no vmmouse specific options, but if you
set mouse(7) options, they will be passed on.
See the mouse(7) man page for details on these options.
