Title Mouse will not work in wd or vedit
Ref. No. QNX.000001938
Category(ies) Input Devices, Configuration
Issue Using QNX4 (without Photon), we can not get our PS2 mouse to work when we are in the Watcom Debugger or vedit. The mouse works fine in Photon.
Solution The updated input driver is required. This is available from the free software archives:

http://www.qnx.com/cgi-bin/dir_find.cgi?/usr/free/
It
is located in the input subdirectory.

With the new driver, use these commands:

Mouse &
Input -d/dev/mousein ps2 -r kb -2 &

NOTE: These arguments are for a PS2 mouse.
