Yep, it does. When you posted the second reply mentioning xinput I did xinput --help and there it was &quot;the --list command&quot;. <br><br>Thanks for the help,<br>Pedro<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Jun 20, 2010 at 6:22 AM, dmotd <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:inaudible@simplesuperlativ.es">inaudible@simplesuperlativ.es</a>&gt;</span> wrote:<br>

&gt; I&#39;ve never used hid or linuxmouse. And when I saw your message I gave it a try<br>
&gt; (since I&#39;m also running Ubuntu and have a synaptics touchpad).<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I&#39;d like to help but here it seems to be even a bigger mess... it crashes when<br>
&gt; accessing the mouse evice with hid. (probably because of the user space issue<br>
&gt; that dmotd mentioned).<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; How did you get that device list? Is it a print from hid? (the only things I<br>
&gt; remember is lspci and lsusb)<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Best regards to everyone, and big up to Hans-Christoph Steiner for hid and<br>
&gt; linuxmouse,<br>

&gt;     also another tip, its possible to configure a<br>
&gt;     device dynamically with &#39;xinput&#39;, you can<br>
&gt;     toggle off with:<br>
&gt;      xinput --set-prop &quot;name of device&quot; &quot;Device Enabled&quot; 0<br>
&gt;     i use this with my wacom tablet to go between<br>
&gt;     xorg device and HID, a full set of properties<br>
&gt;     can be found with:<br>
&gt;      xinput --list-props &quot;name of device&quot;<br>
&gt;     i hope this is of help.<br>
