On a slightly related topic, I've been unable to figure out how to use
the "mux"ed pointing devices.  I'd like to use my Logitech USB mouse if
available or the track point (IBM) or accupoint (Toshiba) on the
keyboard of my laptops if not, without changing /etc/XF86Config.  Or
even both at the same time (in a similar manner you use multiple pointin
devices on Windows or Macintosh).  It would also be cool if I could
hot-plug the USB mouse and use it without rebooting.  I think mux is for
this kind of purpose, but I can't figure out how.

Can anybody help me?

Thanks,

Ken
