Thanks. I will. I also wonder if by now we should stop defaulting to MUX mode: all newer desktop/server boxes use USB, only laptops still use PS/2, and quite a few of them not implement active MUX properly. I also expect that most of external PS/2 mice are dead by now, so number of cases when we have users with PS/2 touchpad + external PS/2 mouse + working active MUX is exceedingly small. Let's pull Vojtech in ;) Thanks. -- Dmitry
