I would like to get hold of mouse movements and dump them to disc. I will be using more than one mouse (I plan to use these as cheap data capture devices) and some research has suggested that mouse movement data is streamed to /dev/input/mouseXXX, but I am not sure how to access this info.
sudo cat /dev/input/mouse2 doesn't show anything at all.
I have USB mice (they all work fine) and am working on Ubuntu Intrepid (AMD64).
Can anyone point me in the right direction? I would really appreciate your help!
