<P>To use the touch screen and a mouse in parallel you need to enter the
mouse specs in the Xinput-section. This definitions should be the same
as in the Pointer-section. The following example is for a
PS/2-mouse:
<PRE>
Section "Xinput" 
   SubSection "Mouse" 
      Protocol "PS/2" 
      Port "/dev/mouse" #could also be /dev/psaux 
      DeviceName "Mouse" 
      AlwaysCore 
   EndSubSection
...
EndSection 
</PRE>

Several people pointed this out, especially the usage of the
AlwaysCore option. Thanks to them all.</P>
