Has anyone done this? I tried setting the bus mouse port/irq up as another com
port, and, unsurprisingly, it failed (autoconfig never found the port). Since
it's a bus mouse I can't treat it as just another tty, unfortunately. Has
anyone solved this problem, or do I get to be the first? :-)
FYI, it's a Mouse Systems White Mouse, with a busmouse card on irq 11,
unfortunately I don't remember the port address.
