zip0 1351 GEOS Drivers [PBM]

In this archive are six drivers by Paul Murdaugh (of the GEOS DualTop fame) for the 1351 mouse for use with GEOS 64 & GEOS 128.  Paul compiled these custom drivers to have various acceleration rates (or Drag as it's called in GEOS).  The drivers also have much better wrap detection, they can tell if you go off the top of the screen, then instead of bouncing the pointer down it just stays at the top edge.

Desktop page 1 has the GEOS 64 drivers, and page 2 has the GEOS 128 versions.

As quoted from c64-wiki.com :

The Neos Mouse was a third party mouse, produced by the company Nihon Electronics Co. Ltd. (internally Mitshumi), introduced in 1985 for the C64 and C128 at the same time as the Commodore 1350, really a joystick shaped in a mouse form.

zip3 New Koala Drivers v1.2 [GEOS]

New Koala Drivers v1.2 by Spike Dethman (December 15th, 1990) - This set of drivers for the Koala Pad are a huge improvement over the drivers by Berkley Softworks.  Instead of using absolute addressing, these drivers use relative addressing so that instead of the mouse pointer just appearing where you click on the Koala, the Koala acts more like a modern day trackpad.  There are four drivers total, 2 for joystick port one, and 2 for joystick port 2.  The difference between the drivers is the orientation in which you use the Koala. 

Full docs are in the archive which cover detailed use.
