DESCRIPTION
     vmmouse is an XFree86 input driver  for  mice.   The  driver
     supports  most  available  mouse  types and interfaces.  USB
     mice are only supported on some OSs, and the level  of  sup-
     port for PS/2 mice depends on the OS.

     The vmmouse driver functions as a pointer input device,  and
     may  be  used as the X server's core pointer.  Multiple mice
     are supported by multiple instances of this driver.

CONFIGURATION DETAILS
     Please  refer  to  xorg.conf(4)  for  general  configuration
     details  and  for  options  that  can be used with all input
     drivers.  This section  only  covers  configuration  details
     specific to this driver.

     The driver will automatically detect if the  vmmouse  device
     is  present and if it is not, it will load the regular mouse
     driver and attempt to fall back to it. There are no  vmmouse
     specific options, but if you set mouse(7) options, they will
     be passed on.

     See the mouse(7) man page for details on these options.
