Can the recent Xorg detect a serial mouse?

It might be easier to install tc-5.x and see if it’s going to work first.

That's what I've done.

Yes, I can use TCL 15 again. But the aim would be to find the correct settings on TCL 5.x and then put them on TCL 15.
That's what I've caught.

Remove  xf86-input-evdev.tcz  from your local copy of  Xorg-7.7.tcz.dep.

For mouse settings I'm using TCL 5.x as Juanito suggested.
I'll check if it's possible to remove evdev from it.

Removing it the keyboard gets disabled, so I can't switch to prompt and check the Xorg.0.log.

CNK:
You might need to configure the kbd driver too, like Juanito's example for the mouse driver. But if the mouse didn't work, I'm not sure there's anything more to do in order to make Xorg use the direct mouse driver.
