Hallo!

Yeah, that is possible, you need to specify each mouse separately in /etc/X11/SF86Config-4. Then do this for the mouse that you want to
use with X: InputDevice "Mouse2" "SendCoreEvents"

Thanks very much. I managed it now, but:

Sounds like you need to "modprobe evdev"

The modul evdev is loaded per default. Don't know, I have only:

holzi@holzi:/dev/input$ ls event0 event2 js0 js2 mice mouse1 mouse3 event1 event3 js1 js3 mouse0 mouse2 (event0 = touchpad, event1 = laptop keyboard, event2 and mouse1 = 1. additional mouse, event3 = sound, mouse2 = 2. additional mouse)

So is there maybe an other way, to get more /dev/input/event* ?

Yes, you just need to make the devices. I think that the module is
compiled to support up to 32 devices. (#define EVDEV_MINORS 32) Like
this, for as many as you need:

mknod /dev/input/event0 c 13 64 mknod /dev/input/event1 c 13 65 mknod /dev/input/event2 c 13 66 mknod /dev/input/event3 c 13 67 mknod /dev/input/event4 c 13 68 mknod /dev/input/event5 c 13 69 ... mknod /dev/input/event31 c 13 95

(Also I don't know where's the 2. keyboard? - It's at least nowhere in /dev/input/* !?)

It should show up once you create more devices.

Thank you again, LG Georg
