hi,

I'm currently customizing KNOPPIX for a university projekt and I've got a huge problem which I can't solve on my own nor with the help of my professors.

I installed knoppix on my HD and made a CD out of it, everything worked fine.

the problem is that when I install knoppix with a usb mouse, the CD will only support usb mice, and when I install it with a ps/2, it works the other way round.
as the cd will somehow be used for promiting my universtiy, it should of course work with USB AND PS/2 mice.
when booting from an original knoppix cd, i think that the XF68config and XF86config-4 files are created newly at every boot, depending of the type of mice,... so the entries are of course different for a usb and ps/2. can anyone tell me which file... is responsible for this creation?
the problem is that my customized cd doesn't create these files newly at every boot, it just uses the files created when installing knoppix to my disk.

so I think that the problem lies in my XF68config and XF86config-4 files, I think.
I'll post the entries concering mice here, so if anyone can help me, I'd be very glad

when booting with a ps2 mouse
XF86config
Section "Pointer"
Protocol "PS/2"
Device "/dev/mouse"
Emulate3Buttons
Emulate3Timeout 70
EndSection

XF86config-4
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "XFree86 Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
InputDevice "PS/2 Mouse" "CorePointer"
# Serial Mouse not detected
# USB Mouse not detected
EndSection

when booting with a usb mouse
XF86config
Section "Pointer"
Protocol "IMPS/2"
Device "/dev/mouse"
Emulate3Buttons
Emulate3Timeout 70
EndSection

XF86config-4
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "XFree86 Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
# PS/2 Mouse not detected
# Serial Mouse not detected
InputDevice "USB Mouse" "CorePointer"
EndSection

I think that the symbolic link from mouse - to /dev/psaux ... /dev/input/mice is set correctly, if that helps...

Thx a lot!
