If you are installing on a PC with a mouse attached to a serial port (rather than the mouse port), here's what you need to do...


== Using Inputattach ==
== Manual editing of the xorg.conf file ==
 
This is arguably the simplest method to set up a serial mouse.


1. Press Control-Alt-F1 to get to Virtual Terminal 1 (your screen will turn black and you'll see a login prompt in white text).
* Boot up normally and wait for Ubuntu to finish loading.


2. Login using your username and password.
* Press '''Ctrl+Alt+F1''' to gain access to a text console (your screen will turn black with a prompt in white text, and if not running from the CD you may be asked to login).


3. [only for releases prior to 6.06/Dapper] Install the 'joystick' package by running 'apt-get install joystick'
* Type the following exactly:
<pre><nowiki>
sudo nano -B /etc/X11/xorg.conf
</nowiki></pre>


4. Run 'inputattach --help' and find the appropriate protocol option to match your mouse
* If you have one, you will be asked for your user password.


5. Add 'inputattach <protocol option> /dev/ttyS0' (or whatever device your serial mouse is attached to) to /etc/rc.local
* The editor will open, displaying the xorg.conf file.


6. Restart
* Navigate (using the arrow and/or Page Up/Down keys) to the following section:
<pre><nowiki>
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Configured Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
EndSection
</nowiki></pre>


7.  Hopefully your mouse is now working, if not, remove the line you added to rc.local and try another method.
* Change the "Option Device" and "Option Protocol" lines as follows:
<pre><nowiki>
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Configured Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/ttyS0"
Option "Protocol" "auto"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
</nowiki></pre> change ttyS0 to ttyS1 if your mouse is connected to COM2 instead of COM1.


== Configure xserver (alternate method) ==
* Type '''Ctrl+X''' then '''Y''' and '''Enter''' to save the changes to the file and exit.


The installation will complete, and you will be able to log in but your mouse will not move or respond to button clicks. You need to reconfigure your xserver to see the mouse.
* Press '''Ctrl+Alt+F7''' (to return to the graphical interface).


* Press Control-Alt-F1 to get to Virtual Terminal 1 (your screen will turn black and you'll see a login prompt in white text).
* Press '''Ctrl+Alt+Backspace''' ('''NOT''' Delete!) to restart the graphical interface.


* Login using your username and password.
* Hopefully your mouse now works. If not, type the following to undo your changes, just to be safe, before trying again using ttyS1 instead of ttyS0.


* Enter the following command at the prompt
<pre><nowiki>
<pre><nowiki>
sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
cd /etc/X11
sudo cp xorg.conf~ xorg.conf
</nowiki></pre>
</nowiki></pre>


* Press Return to accept the existing settings UNTIL you get to the selection for the mouse port.
(Note the symbol immediately after the first "xorg.conf" is a tilde. The error message '''cp: cannot stat...''' indicates a typing error here.)


* Choose whichever port your mouse is connected to:
If trying the other port also fails try another method below.


* first serial port: /dev/ttyS0
* second serial port: /dev/ttyS1


* Press Return to accept each the rest of the settings pages.

* After you finish configuring the xserver, you will get back to a prompt in white text on a black background.
How to set up a serial mouse using only the keyboard and without working in a text-only console.


* Switch back to the xserver by pressing Control-Alt-F7 (virtual terminal 7).
It is highly recommended that you make a backup copy of the "xorg.conf" file before making edits.


* Kill the xserver by pressing Control-Alt-Backspace (This is NOT Control-Alt-Delete, which will make the machine shutdown).
* Login normally and wait for Ubuntu to finish loading.


* When the xserver restarts, your mouse should work normally. If not, you may have chosen the wrong port. If necessary, press Control-Alt-F1 to go back to the virtual terminal and reconfigure the xserver again (following the steps above). If the xserver gives up, you can make it try again by typing startx at a virtual terminal prompt.
* Press '''"Alt+F1"''', to open the '''"Applications"''' menu.


== Installing Without a Mouse At All. ==
* Press '''down arrow''' to move to the '''"Accessories"''' item.


This method will help you if you MUST install Ubuntu on a pc with a serial mouse. Clearly you cant modify xorg.conf when running from the CD, so you CAN'T have a mouse during the installation process.
* Press '''right arrow''' to get into the next '''"menu"'''.


1) Exit Xorg
* Press '''down arrow''' to move to the '''"Terminal"''' item.
2) Create an .xinitrc file in your home directory, with the following line.


xterm -geometry +300+300
* Press '''Enter/Return''' to start a '''small terminal window'''.


3) Save the file and run startx
* Type in '''"gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf"''' and press '''Enter/Return'''.


Now you will have an X session. with a focused XTERM in the middle of your screen. Just type
* When asked, enter your '''password''' and press '''Enter/Return''' (gedit will open, displaying the xorg.conf file).

ttyS0 might need to be ttyS1 on your system, depending on which
COM port your mouse is plugged into.


Save your changes (be sure to make a backup first). To get these

changes to take affect, you will now need to restart your X server.

This is done with "Ctrl-Alt-Backspace"
 
If that doesn't do it, you can always try a reboot of the system.

If you are installing on a PC with a mouse attached to a serial port (rather than the mouse port), here's what you need to do...

Manual editing of the xorg.conf file

This is arguably the simplest method to set up a serial mouse.

  • Boot up normally and wait for Ubuntu to finish loading.
  • Press Ctrl+Alt+F1 to gain access to a text console (your screen will turn black with a prompt in white text, and if not running from the CD you may be asked to login).
  • Type the following exactly:
sudo nano -B /etc/X11/xorg.conf
  • If you have one, you will be asked for your user password.
  • The editor will open, displaying the xorg.conf file.
  • Navigate (using the arrow and/or Page Up/Down keys) to the following section:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Configured Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
EndSection
  • Change the "Option Device" and "Option Protocol" lines as follows:
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Configured Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/ttyS0"
Option "Protocol" "auto"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection

change ttyS0 to ttyS1 if your mouse is connected to COM2 instead of COM1.

  • Type Ctrl+X then Y and Enter to save the changes to the file and exit.
  • Press Ctrl+Alt+F7 (to return to the graphical interface).
  • Press Ctrl+Alt+Backspace (NOT Delete!) to restart the graphical interface.
  • Hopefully your mouse now works. If not, type the following to undo your changes, just to be safe, before trying again using ttyS1 instead of ttyS0.
cd /etc/X11
sudo cp xorg.conf~ xorg.conf

(Note the symbol immediately after the first "xorg.conf" is a tilde. The error message cp: cannot stat... indicates a typing error here.)
