Re: PS/2 Mouse

2005-05-28 by mal_ibn

Great! Thanks! That seems to be the one document - if not THE document 
I searched for. Yesterday at night I found out that the ACK is needed 
for communication. Now that I understand the theory - is there a 
application with ARM-software to read a PS/2 mouse or trackball? If 
there is an open source for a mousedriver (without OS), I'd like to use 
it instead of debugging wrong thought ;)
There will be enough debugging implementing the driver into my 
application.

regards, Alexander
