[ANNOUNCE] Mouse Support - extmou
... and here it is - support for Bluetooth/USB mouse attached to n900
FUNCTIONALITY - fixes broken mouse support in evdev driver. Shows cursor when mouse is connected and hides it when disconnected. INSTALLATION - enable Extras Development repository and install Mouse Support if using Application Manager. If using CLI package name is extmou. This installs xserver-xorg-input-evdev-mouse and libxmuu1 packages too. You have to restart your n900 after installation so updated evdev driver to be activated You should remove bt-hid-scripts and Patched x.org mouse driver packages (if installed) before installation, otherwise it will fail. CONFIGURATION - no configuration is needed. WARNING - usual warnings for using software from extras-devel apply. You've been warned :) . UNINSTALLATION - using Application Manager NOTE - current version of h-e-n does not detect device removal, so if you just close h-e-n with mouse attached, the cursor will remain visible. A workaround procedure is: 1. disconnect mouse 2. press enumerate NOTE2 - if your bluetooth mouse pairs and connects ok, but stops working after a while you may try to install kernel-power v46 or above. It has a patch which most probably will help you to solve the problem. |
Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mouse Support
wow.. it works just great.. i had been waiting for a simplified solution like this. the mouse cursor disappears when the bluetooth mouse is disconnected. nice
i just have following issues: 1. text selection not available using mouse in leafpad 2. scrolling not available in microb browser thanks freeman and others involved in this bluetooth mouse support project |
Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mouse Support
Yes, microb just don't like mice :D
re leafpad - maybe you should ask its maintainer or file a bug |
Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mouse Support
sweeeeeeeet cant wait to try
|
Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mouse Support
I'll add auto enumeration after the application is closed (and I might add a signal that's sent to system dbus at each h-e-n event)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mouse Support
Hello !
Great work (both h-e-n team & freemangordon) ! h-e-n works extkbd works (tested with 5 different usb-keyboards & nokia su-8w) but I am a bit confused regarding bt mouse: Do I have to install the following .... azerty1/N900-BlueMouseSupport.tar.gz f2thak/mouseshortcut.zip .... prior to install your Mouse Support package? If the previous two routines were installed do i have to cleanup those beforehand? Many thanks for your efforts ! PS. I have removed bt-hid-scripts DS. --------- Removed the routines above ..... ..... and Installed Mouse Support package - Everything ok ! |
Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mouse Support
Not sure what those packages contain, but most probably yes, you have to remove them.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mouse Support
Any fix for the scrolling? Can it be fixed?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Mouse Support
You mean in microb? No way, sorry, tablet-browser-ui is closed source. Or at least it is out of my competence
