Bug Description

Binary package hint: usplash

Hello,

There are users that cannot use a keyboard, but do all their input with the pointer. (for example disabled users, TabletPC users,...)

Unfortunately, the only possibility to stop the fsck during startup is by pressing the esc-key on the keyboard. Could you please make it also listen for mouse clicks to stop the fsck so that users without a keyboard can also stop it?

Please, if possible, make it listen to all mouse button. If you have to restrict it to only one mouse button, please listen for the left mouse button, because users that only have one mouse button are probably in most cases using the left mouse button.

Thanks in advance.
