nanogui: Thread: problem with USB mouse and keyboard

Hello all,

I am having following setup on ARM9 Linux board,
	microwin/nano-X => CVS snapshot
	nxlib-0.45
	fltk-1.1.6

The microwin/nano-X configuration I'm using is config.uclibc with 
SERMOUSE=Y and SCANKBD=Y. 

I am using USB keyboard and Mouse as input devices, which gets detected
as soon as connected to board.  But when I run fltk demo or the nano-X
demo application, mouse pointer gets displayed on middle of the screen
and as mouse is slightly moved, the pointer goes to the top of the
screen and stays there. For any further movement, it moves horizontally
at the top of the screen. Also the fltk demo detects random click events
and opens too many windows and finally hangs.... 

I have MOUSE_PORT=/dev/mouse which is symlink to /dev/input/event1 and
MOUSE_TYPE=ps2 in mou_ser.c. Also tried with ms, pc and logi MOUSE_TYPE
but the behavior is same.

With USB keyboard I could not test the alphanumeric keys because
application hangs due to mouse... although keys like tab( for
navigation), space (for selection) and escape (for exit) works to some
extent.

I am executing fltk demo this way, 

microwin # ./bin/nano-X &

fltk # ./test/demo


Is it that microwin/nano-X need special handling for USB-HID, as X11 has
something like mouUSBRead()..? 

I may be doing something wrong... but I hope someone on the list would
suggest some solution.

Thanks in anticipation.

Hi,

I think you are using linux kernel so build the Device Drivers  ---> Input 
device support  --->Mouse interface and specify screen resolution with that 
driver. Use "/dev/mice" interface created by this interface.

Because on "/dev/input/event0" provide the raw data and not calibrated.

For the keypad you have to write driver like scan_kbd.c to read from 
""/dev/input/event0" or "/dev/input/event1" where your keyboard is attached.

Thanks,
Vinod

Thanks Vinod.. sorry for the late response.

It is working with /dev/mice.
The user interface driver for mouse (mousedev.c)
was absent in my kernel image. Problem was solved once I added the
driver.
