Hi all

I have one of these intellimouse explorer mice for bluetooth with two thumb buttons and the "4-way" wheel - trying to set it up.
Apart from the fact that I am apparently not intelligent enough to set up bluetooth connections correctly (see https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-430502-highlight-.html), I now wanted to install the mouse correctly, i. e. having all the buttons and the wheel work.

Now, here's my first issue, which I absolutely don't understand. I found this great site: http://katze-mit-wut.azundris.com/archives/126-Microsoft-IntelliMouse-Explorer-2.0,-linux,-xemacs,-and-x.org.html? and was trying to follow step-by-step.

But a cat /proc/bus/input/devices gives this:
Code:
I: Bus=0011 Vendor=0002 Product=0005 Version=0000
N: Name="ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse"
P: Phys=isa0060/serio1/input0
H: Handlers=mouse0 event1
B: EV=7
B: KEY=70000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
B: REL=103

I: Bus=0005 Vendor=045e Product=0098 Version=0010
N: Name=""
P: Phys=
H: Handlers=mouse1 event2
B: EV=7
B: KEY=1f0000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
B: REL=103


Why isn't my mouse showing up as some usb-device? What's "isa0060"? Can I still use the "isa0060/serio1/input0" bit for my /etc/X11/xorg.conf (like in option "Dev Phys" "usb-0000:00:10.0-2/input0" in the example given on the site for an usb-mouse?)

Thanks for any input...
