+In Linux you have various special files in
+<filename>/dev</filename>. These files are called devices files. In
+the Unix world accessing hardware is different.  There you have a
+special file which actually runs a driver which in turn accesses the
+hardware. The device file is an interface to the actual system
+component. Files under <filename>/dev</filename> also behave
+differently than ordinary files. Below are the most important device
+files listed.

+<title>Setting Up Your Mouse</title>
+
+<para>
+
+The mouse can be used in both the Linux console (with gpm) and the X window
+environment. The two uses can be made compatible if the gpm repeater is used
+to allow the signal to flow to the X server as shown:
+<informalexample><screen>
+mouse =&#62; /dev/psaux  =&#62; gpm =&#62; /dev/gpmdata -&#62; /dev/mouse =&#62; X
+         /dev/ttyS0             (repeater)        (symlink)
+         /dev/ttyS1
+</screen></informalexample>
+
+</para><para>
+
+Set the repeater protocol to be raw (in <filename>/etc/gpm.conf</filename>) while
+setting X to the original mouse protocol in <filename>/etc/X11/XF86Config</filename>
+or <filename>/etc/X11/XF86Config-4</filename>.
+
+</para><para>
+
+This approach to use gpm even in X has advantages when the mouse is
+unplugged inadvertently.  Simply restarting gpm with
+<informalexample><screen>
+user@debian:# /etc/init.d/gpm restart
+</screen></informalexample>
+will re-connect the mouse in software without restarting X.
+
+</para><para>
+
+If gpm is disabled or not installed with some reason, make sure to set X to
+read directly from the mouse device such as /dev/psaux. For details, refer
+to the 3-Button Mouse mini-Howto at
+<filename>/usr/share/doc/HOWTO/en-txt/mini/3-Button-Mouse.gz</filename>, 
+<userinput>man gpm</userinput>, 
+<filename>/usr/share/doc/gpm/FAQ.gz</filename>, and 
+<ulink url="&url-xfree86;current/mouse.html">README.mouse</ulink>.
+
+</para><para arch="powerpc">
+
+For PowerPC, in <filename>/etc/X11/XF86Config</filename> or
+<filename>/etc/X11/XF86Config-4</filename>, set the mouse device to
+<userinput>"/dev/input/mice"</userinput>.

+Modern kernels give you the capability to emulate a three-button mouse
+when your mouse only has one button. Just add the following lines to
+<filename>/etc/sysctl.conf</filename> file.
+

+
+# 3-button mouse emulation 
+# turn on emulation
