I have now tried to get my mouse working without much success... Shouldn't
this more or less be a matter of copying the settings from XF86Config?
That doesn't work at all for me. In XF86Config I have
Protocol "MouseSystems"
Device "/dev/mouse" # symlink to ttyS1
ClearDTR # If this is not included, the mouse doesn't work at all

When I set the exact same in libvga.config, the mouse doesn't react at
all. When I try the MouseMan protocol, it works OK, except my center
button doesn't work. And once, after some time, the buttons stopped
working altogether.

Is this a ggi-issue or an SVGAlib issue? I'm a little confused here...
