XFree86 supports the dynamic loading of drivers for external
input devices using the XInput
extension. Currently supported
devices are:
xf86Jstk.so
)xf86Wacom.so
)xf86Summa.so
)xf86Elo.so
)To use a specific device, add the line
load
"
module"
in the Module section of XF86Config
, where module is
the name of the .so
file corresponding to your device.
You also need to set up a XInput section in XF86Config
.
Refer to the XF86Config(5) man page for detailed
configuration instructions.
You can then change the device used to drive the X pointer with the xsetpointer(1) command.
For joystick support, you'll need to install the joystick device driver in the kernel. It is included in NetBSD 1.2. See joy(4) for details.
