mouse in advmame and linux? [RESOLVED!!]
whammoed:
jerryjanis,
thanks for the post, I tried those settings before and now I have tried them again. just keeps telling me Unable to initialize the mouse driver. the errors are: raw: no mouse found
Either I am missing something or it has something to do with framebuffer. I haven't found anyone who has a mouse working with framebuffer.

jerryjanis, you may want to reconsider the framebuffer and matrox idea, see this thread:

RESOLVED!!!
SOLUTION: User you are logged in as must have permission on /dev directory. Although you point the raw mouse(s) to /dev/input/mouse# it is not good enough to have permission on /dev/input. I don't know why, but who cares, it works, and with raw mouse you can specify up to 4 mouse devices uniquely!!! very cool. I will promptly pay myself $20 ::) Seriously though, thanks to those who posted, I appreciate all the help I get from this forum. You guys rock!
