That's a good idea but my computer doesn't have a PS/2 input.
[hid] is for usb, maybe [comport] would work with PS/2 if you used a PS/2 to usb connector??? or one of the older mouse objects? not sure, maybe the PS/2 to usb connector means that the trackball becomes a usb mouse?
If it does appear as a usb mouse then [hid] can certainly connect to it directly, which will probably be what you want.
You will need to do a few settings to your X setup, or your system, to make sure that the trackball does not become a mouse for the whole system.
