Title: drivers for usb mouse adapter
Post by: cdskagen on June 25, 2010, 07:15:31 PM
Hi, I just bought a usb mouse adapter for Miggy, it works great for 2  button use, but wanted to know if someone knows which drivers software I  would use for it, to get scroll wheel working for use with a program  like freewheel, here is a link to adapter from ebay:

It's not good for the A600, right?

it says on ebay that it works with a600, if a regular amiga mouse worked, so shoudl this, I am using it on a Amiga 2000, and it is a very tight fit because ports are recessed behind front of case...

You're using this adapter on A2000 but not on A600.
See picture below:

We can all see that this adapter can not be inserted in mouse/game DB9 male interfaces of an AMIGA A600! ...except perhaps if you have this cable or similar:

If you take pictures/videos of this adapter running on an Amiga A600, it would be great for the whole Amiga Community.
Thank you.
