In the /etc/X11/X86Config file there should be a line like: Device "/dev/psaux" Make sure that the device is set to /dev/psaux for a PS2 mouse (sometimes people use /dev/mouse which they link to the real mouse device - /dev/psaux, etc.) Anyway, give that a try. -- Jim Crumley | crumley at belka.space.umn.edu | Work: 612 624-6804 or -0378 | --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: tclug-list-unsubscribe at mn-linux.org For additional commands, e-mail: tclug-list-help at mn-linux.org
