<font size="-1">I've tried using [hid] and [linuxmouse] and both
objects can open the device but no data is output from either object.
[MouseState] and [cursor] both work but I was hoping to get relative
values. Is this a driver issue? I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 and Pd version
0.42.5-extended-rc3. Here's the console output:<br>

<br>
Also my xorg.conf has this info:<br>
<br>

Driver "synaptics"<br>
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"<br>
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"<br>
Option "Protocol" "auto-dev"<br>
Option "HorizEdgeScroll" "FALSE"<br>
Option "VertEdgeScroll" "FALSE"<br>
Option "SHMconfig" "on"<br>
Option "VertTwoFingerScroll" "TRUE"<br>
Option "HorizTwoFingerScroll" "TRUE"<br>
EndSection<br>
<br>
<br>
Any ideas?<br>
<br>
thanks,<br>
