Hello,
I found the problem with zs I haven't idea on which layer I have to fix
it.
The problem Zilog sets high bits in received chars and X server doesn't
like it. In order to operate, the serial mouse protocol requires 7bit
mode, then X gets 8bit char with high bit set and thinks it should
process that char. Certainly, it leads to very interesting pointer
behaviour in X :-). From the other side, gpm looks to not be affected at
all.
So, I have 2 choices: either 'fix' the zs driver (what I have been made
already, the driver stores mask depending on receive mode and applies
the mask on every byte it receives) or fix the X server. Then, again, I
am not sure X is a single application that have this behavior.
Any comments ?
Regards,
Gleb.
