Mouse Support

[Russ Meyer]

I've got a BoB but I can't seem to get mouse support working. The TV out works great as does plugging in my CF USB reader but I can't get the mouse working. I have tryed two different mice(mouses) one is an optical and one is a ball type from a compaq, both of these work on my PC. The green LED lights up when the mouse is plugged into the BoB and I have tryed in both Qutopia and the new Quake.

Any help would be appriciated.

did you enable hid?

did you enable hid?

This might concern me in the future if i have a GP2X.. What is HID?
I also heard you need a usb hub between the mouse and gp2x?

In the gp2x menu, go to settings / system, and make sure Human Interface is set to on.

FYI: HID stands for Human Interface Device

Yes I did enable HID (forgot to mention that)

Ok I don't know what I did but it is working now, I think I might have switched off usb host. Thanx for the help.

... The green LED lights up when the mouse is plugged into the BoB ...

Green? I know that it's easy to mod an optical mouse and change the LED to another one with any color, but I don't remember seeing any off the shelf mouse except with blue, red or pink LEDs.

there are green leds on each usb-port of the developer-version-BoB.
I think they should indicate if the device is correctly attached.

I see, I thought the green LEDs are the optical mouse's, thanks for the clarification
