tried /dev/input/mouse0 (after all, I had to pick either that or mice), and
so far it seems to work.  Any idea what the difference is?

"/dev/input/mice" allows you to use any pointing device connected to the
computer.  "/dev/input/mouseX" will work just fine when using VMware
because there is only one device anyway.

Thanks for the feedback.
