If it works fine there, yes.

This sounds like a multiprotocol mouse.

This is weird. Try turning on GGI_DEBUG=255 to get more info.

You have turned on the ClearDTR in the libvga.config ?
Do you have permission to change line parameters there ? It might be a
problem of not being able to open the device read/write.

Anyway, GGI_DEBUG should help to diagnose the problem.

It is a GGI issue, if you are running on fbcon.

We just happen to use the SVGAlib config file, to avoid making up yet
another config-file.
