Just for the record, not my experience. The mouse on my Gateway G6-350 fails to be detected about 20% times the machine is booted into WNT4W (a service has failed to start...). My Gateway Solo 2500 is meant to detect a serial mouse and use it as an alternative to the trackpad. It doesn't. Linux will happily use both the trackpad and a serial mouse. I much prefer manual configuration.
