How Do I Connect A Mouse To My Raspberry PI?
Looking for information on how to connect your mouse or keyboard to your Raspberry PI? Check out the easy instructions below.
Mouse or Keyboard
New high spec Model B has 2 USB ports and the basic Model A PI has a single USB port.
All the USB ports can be used with USB 2.0 devices.
Just plug your Mouse or keyboard into a spare USB socket. If you don’t have a spare socket, connect a USB hub to provide more space.
If you have problems operating your mouse or keyboard it is most likely due to the fact the PI can only supply a small about of current to the USB devices. Connect your device via a powered USB hub and that should solve your problems.
