Subject: Re: Sun mouse pad Re: need some parts
A friend at a placed I used to work showed me a postscript file
he had downloaded from somewhere for printing your own
optical mouse mats for a Sun (his had a bad scratch accross
it). As a temporary stopgap it _might_ work (need a colour printer
though!).
No you don't -- just a print that is red/IR-absorbent (the two LEDs in
optical mice are IR and red). We've used laser-printed sheets as an
expediency measure a few times. There's no fancy pattern, either, it's
just horizontal and vertical lines in a regular grid.
