Hello. I am mailing a message that I posted earlier on the newsgroup because a friend of mine informed me that many people subscribe to the list but do not check the newsgroup that often. ------------------------------------- I am a new Debian user. With a great deal of help from a friend (read: he installed and debugged it for me), I now have Debian Linux 1.3.1 on my Pentium 233. It is set up as a dual boot machine, with Win95.
My problem is that X Windows doesn't seem to recognize my mouse, though it works under Win95, and you even get a mouse cursor when logged in to a vt100 terminal. The mouse is just a standard Microsoft serial mouse. If anyone has had this problem, or even if you haven't and know how to fix it, any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Larry Gariepy [EMAIL PROTECTED] ps. I have two friends who are Debian gurus, and they were unable to diagnose the problem (other than to recommend buying a new mouse!), so it leads me to believe this problem is non-trivial. ------------------------------------ -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
