PS2 mouse support

[toncho11]

I think after the last PR it is not possible to start any nx app. I am using minix hdd image.

On the serial port I get:

Starting /bin/nano-X
cannot open graphics
Cannot bind to named socket

[toncho11]

There must be some wrong path now.
An nx app just returns to prompt after a while.
The above is the serial console output.
I used new ELKS and microwindows folders.

[toncho11]

I think I do not have unix sockets enabled.

[toncho11]

So it works.
But export MOUSE_PORT=none does not allow starting without mouse.
And it says export cannot open graphics even if it is only a mouse related issue.
I think this was fixed in the ELKS' tree version of nano-X.

Maybe unix sockets should be enabled by default now in ELKS?

They are. But the way menuconfig works is it leaves your previous settings intact unless you delete .config and start from scratch.

But export MOUSE_PORT=none does not allow starting without mouse.
And it says export cannot open graphics even if it is only a mouse related issue.

MOUSE_PORT=none is supposed to be supported but hasn't been tested. I'll take a look

Sounds right about unix sockets. It was not a fresh clone indeed.

CTRL+A does not seem to work correctly now. It says "Can't open break" and resets to login.

Yes, this was broken. Fix pushed.

Just tested CTRL-A and it seems to work fine.

It still tries to open the mouse after none. I am also in the case where there is no mouse in hardware.

Did you do a git pull and rebuild nano-X? I just tested again over here and it works, doesn't try to open /dev/ttyS{0,1} after export MOUSE_PORT=none.

[toncho11]

I did. But you have hardware mouse present I think and I don't.

[ghaerr]

I can't test on real hardware at the moment. How do you know it's trying to open a mouse serial port?

[ghaerr]

Also make sure you've rebuilt the disk image after rebuilding nano-X. You might be running the old /bin/nano-X still.

I see that both copy and 86box are acting differently and there is little logic in it.

I'm not sure if this means you have Nano-X working or not, but I think the latest mouse issue is working in Nano-X. That said, I can say that emulator setup for Nano-X is a bit more complicated since debug output is now attempted on /dev/ttyS0, and some emulators do funny things when serial output is seen. This is why MOUSE_PORT= must usually be set in order to work on an emulator, to force the mouse port to the desired location.
