  .SH ARGUMENTS
  .TP 12
  .I display
  Specifies the connection to the X server.
  .TP 12
  .I device
  Specifies the device whose mode is to be changed.
  .TP 12
  .I mode
  Specifies the mode.
  You can pass 
  \fIAbsolute\fP ,
  or
  \fIRelative\fP.
  .SH DESCRIPTION
  The
  \fIXSetDeviceMode\fP
  request changes the mode of an input device that is capable of reporting
  either absolute positional information or relative motion information.  
  Not all input devices are capable of reporting motion data, and not
  all are capable of changing modes from \fIAbsolute\fP to \fIRelative\fP.
  .LP
  \fIXSetDeviceMode\fP
  can generate a \fIBadDevice\fP or
  \fIBadMode\fP 
  error.
  .SH DIAGNOSTICS
  .TP 12
  \fIBadDevice\fP
  An invalid device was specified.  The specified device does not exist or has 
  not been opened by this client via \fIXOpenInputDevice\fP.  This error may
  also occur if some other client has caused the specified device to become
  the X keyboard or X pointer device via the \fIXChangeKeyboardDevice\fP or
  \fIXChangePointerDevice\fP requests.
  .TP 12
  \fIBadMatch\fP
  This error may occur if an \fIXSetDeviceMode\fP request is made 
  specifying a device that has no valuators and reports no axes of motion.
  .TP 12
  \fIBadMode\fP
  An invalid mode was specified.  This error will also be returned if the
  specified device is not capable of supporting the \fIXSetDeviceMode\fP
  request.
