<p class="Pp">The <code class="Nm">ms</code> driver provides an interface to the
    workstation console mouse. This Mouse Systems three-button device produces
    five-byte blobs of the form:</p>
<div class="Bd Pp Bd-indent Li">
<pre>b dx dy dx dy</pre>
</div>
<p class="Pp">where &#x201C;b&#x201D; is the button state, encoded as
    <code class="Li">0x80|(~buttons)</code> -- there are three buttons (4=left,
    2=middle, 1=right) -- and &#x201C;dx&#x201D; and &#x201C;dy&#x201D; are X
    and Y delta values, none of which are in the range
    [<code class="Li">0x80..0x87</code>].</p>
<p class="Pp">The device special file <span class="Pa">/dev/mouse</span> is used
    to get direct access to the mouse input stream. The following ioctl's are
    supported (mostly just enough to keep the <code class="Ic">X</code> server
    going):</p>
<dl class="Bl-tag">
  <dt id="VUIDSFORMAT"><a class="permalink" href="#VUIDSFORMAT"><code class="Dv">VUIDSFORMAT</code></a></dt>
  <dd>Set translation mode. The argument is of type <var class="Fa">int *</var>,
      the only value supported is <code class="Dv">VUID_FIRM_EVENT</code>.</dd>

    configuration file options.</p>
<dl class="Bl-tag">
  <dt><code class="Cd">options SUN_MS_BPS=integer</code></dt>
  <dd>This option causes the kernel to communicate with the mouse using the

      which do not communicate at 1200 baud.</dd>
