Description-en: X.Org X server -- VMMouse input driver to use with VMWare
This package provides the driver for the X11 vmmouse input device.
.
The VMMouse driver enables support for the special VMMouse protocol
that is provided by VMware virtual machines to give absolute pointer
positioning.
.
The vmmouse driver is capable of falling back to the standard "mouse"
driver if a VMware virtual machine is not detected. This allows for
dual-booting of an operating system from a virtual machine to real hardware
without having to edit xorg.conf every time.
.
More information about X.Org can be found at:
.
This package is built from the X.org xf86-input-vmmouse driver module.
