I just installed Debian 2.1 on /dev/hdb1 (/dev/hda has Windows 98). I have a K6-233, 32Mb RAM machine. My mainboard manual says my mouse port is a PS/2 Mouse. I installed the IBM PS/2 bus mouse driver during the install. I also tried to install the the Microsoft bus mouse driver but the install failed with a device busy message.
When I try to run vga_solitaire to test the mouse, no mouse cursor appears. When I exit the program, I see a message saying my mouse has not been configured. What do I need to do to get my mouse working? BTW, I searched the archives a lot prior to installing debian and learned a great deal. Thank you. Greg
