I posted this a long time ago, and got no replies, hopefully there's
someone out there now that can help out.


 The following piece of code was posted to comp.os.linux:

/*

 mousemode.c 

 Program to reset [or set] the DTR and RTS modem control lines on
 a serial port.  For some serial mice this will change the mouse
 mode from Microsoft mode to Mouse Systems mode.

 Usage:  mousemode device [set]

 where device is your mouse serial device (e.g. /dev/ttys1) and
 the optional set argument (which can be any string) causes the
 control lines to be turned on instead of off.

 Use/abuse as you want.  Ed Casas (edc@ee.ubc.ca) 92/11/24.

#include <assert.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <fcntl.h> 
#include <sys/ioctl.h>

void main(int argc, char **argv)
{
  int fd, s = TIOCM_DTR | TIOCM_RTS ;
  assert ( argc > 1 && ( fd = open ( argv[1] , O_RDONLY ) ) ) ;
  if ( argc > 2 )
    ioctl( fd, TIOCMBIS , &s ) ;
  else
    ioctl( fd, TIOCMBIC , &s ) ;
}

I have one of these weird mice and would love to get the three buttons out
of it.  Does anyone know how to convert this to run on ISC 2.2.1?  I looked
through the man pages for ioctl and ioctl.h and fas.h and I
couldn't come up with much. 

I was able to make the DTR light flash, but couldn't get it to a stable
state.  I want to set the DTR and RTS before I run XFree so all 3 buttons
on my mouse will work.

Can anyone help?

Thanks...
