----------------------
In order to use a USB mouse, you must first attach it to a USB qube, then
give that qube permission to pass mouse input to dom0.
Edit the `qubes.InputMouse` policy file in dom0, which is located here:
give that qube permission to pass mouse input to dom0. Note that allowing
mouse access from a USB qube gives it great power. In short:
* It will be able to change any global and per-domain setting available within GUI
* It will be able to attach untrusted devices to domains that should not
have device access
* It will be able to enable networking in network-disconnected domains
* It will be able to initiate file transfer between domains.
(For more details, see [here][input-proxy].)
If you are sure you wish to proceed, then you must edit the
`qubes.InputMouse` policy file in dom0, which is located here:
/etc/qubes-rpc/policy/qubes.InputMouse
