Message-ID: <148@4gl.UUCP> Date: Mon, 6-Apr-87 10:37:48 EST Article-I.D.: 4gl.148 Posted: Mon Apr 6 10:37:48 1987 Date-Received: Sat, 11-Apr-87 03:23:57 EST Organization: 4GL Consultants b.v., the Netherlands Lines: 14 Keywords: mouse, rs232, hardware Xref: utgpu comp.sys.ibm.pc:2790 comp.unix.xenix:198 I'd like to get an PC mouse, of the type that connects to the RS232 port, working under venix. When I read from the port that the mouse is connected on, I get some "data", but it is not understandable at any of the normal baud rates. Who knows how such a mouse works, and in which way you can get some sensible data from the UART. You can E-mail, I'll summarize (and hopefully post a usable program).
