.TH mouse_init 3 "27 July 1997" "Svgalib (>= 1.2.11)" "Svgalib User Manual"
|
||
|
.SH NAME
|
||
|
mouse_init, mouse_init_return_fd \- specifically initialize a mouse
|
||
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
||
|
.B "#include <vgamouse.h>"
|
||
|
|
||
|
.BI "int mouse_init(char *" dev ", int " type ", int " samplerate );
|
||
|
.br
|
||
|
.BI "int mouse_init_return_fd(char *" dev ", int " type ", int " samplerate );
|
||
|
|
||
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
These routines can be used to open the mouse manually,
|
||
|
ignoring the mouse types or devices specified in the
|
||
|
config file.
|
||
|
|
||
|
.I dev
|
||
|
is the name of the mouse device
|
||
|
.RI "(defaults to " /dev_mouse ).
|
||
|
|
||
|
.I samplerate
|
||
|
may be one
|
||
|
.BR MOUSE_DEFAULTSAMPLERATE (150)
|
||
|
or any other value. Probably it is in Hz.
|
||
|
|
||
|
.I type
|
||
|
is one of the types which are listed already in
|
||
|
.BR vga_getmousetype (3).
|
||
|
|
||
|
If these routines are used it is not necessary to call
|
||
|
.BR vga_setmousesupport (3),
|
||
|
but it's probably better to not use these and use
|
||
|
.BR vga_setmousesupport (3)
|
||
|
instead.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The
|
||
|
.B return_fd
|
||
|
version returns the file descriptor of the
|
||
|
mouse device to allow you to do further tricks with the mouse (but the filehandle may change
|
||
|
during a VC switch). The other version just returns 0 if successful.
|
||
|
Both return -1 on error.
