Latest ctmouse 2.1 beta 4 and issues with the various versions (experts please come in) - China DOS Union Forum

Downloads for all versions

Homepage for the new version

The latest version is now 2.1b4. I see that most people are using version 1.9, so which is better, 1.9 or 1.9b1?
I once tried 2.0 on a Dell server and it couldn't drive the mouse; the problem was that it would hang. After switching to 1.9 there was absolutely no problem. Also, when using 1.9 or 1.9b1, sometimes the mouse would often cause screen corruption, but with version 2.0 and above there is no problem at all. And after using 2.0, if I then run programs like ghost under VC, there will be delay, but with 2.1b4 it's fine. I'm very worried about compatibility issues in the latest version. I'd like to ask the experts, which version is best to use? Can anyone also give a detailed analysis of the functions and compatibility of each version???????

I think the general meaning of what the author wrote on the newly revised homepage is:
3 branches:
1.9 uses BIOS detection
2.0 uses direct hardware access for PS / 2 mice, and supports the wheel
2.1 uses BIOS to handle PS / 2 mice, but also supports the wheel, combining the best of v1.9 and 2.0. Wheel programming information is included in the v2.x package

What does "Wheel programming information is included in the v2.x package" mean?
