Hello I have bought a Debian Linux before Christmas (a CD-ROM in the "Dream" magazine) and I would like to have all the X11 features working properly. So here is a brief description of my problem :
When "startx" is not launched, I can define with "gpm" a mouse on device "/dev/mouse". In this case, a pointer appears on the screen and words can be selected with the mouse. But when I launch "startx" using for instance "fvwm2" the environment seems OK, but the pointer of the mouse is strongly attracted to the lower left corner of the screen! It is completely impossible to move the pointer of the mouse out of this corner. In the XF86Config file in the /etc/X11 directory, I have these lines : Section "Pointer" Protocol "Microsoft" Device "/dev/mouse" BaudRate 1200 Emulate3Timeout 50 SampleRate 0 EndSection What shall I do to correct this ? Which package should correct this problem ? My PC use to run properly under W95. I have a 200 MHz Pentium with 32M RAM, a S3TRIO V64+ Video card with 1M RAM, two hard disks one /dev/hda for W95 and the other on /dev/hdc for Debian Linux. The CD-ROM is mounted on /dev/hdd. The mouse is a microsoft like mouse with 3 buttons.
