I don't know the keys, but I found that /dev/mouse was linked to (the
non-existant) /dev/qms instead of /dev/qms0 as it should be for a Risc
PC. An A7000 would use /dev/pms0 presumably, but it's possible that you
could have suffered a similar problem. Check the link and the file
permissions and it should start working.
