EC> Hello. I'm trying to introduce a debian box to my office....I am not EC> a sysadmin, so I stumble a little bit with these things. Anyway, I want to make EC> a good impression of deb.

If I start X with EC> gpm, I get a mouse, but it is very erratic and unacceptable. So, if EC> I remove gpm, and then restart X, the mouse works fine under X. Ok, EC> if I then reboot, there's no connection to the mouse without gpm; so after EC> reboot (after removing gpm), the mouse is dead under X. EC> EC> In the XF86Config-4 setup file I have the mouse on /dev/psaux. I checked, EC> and there is a link from /dev/psaux -> gpmdata. I'm using a ps/2 mouse. EC> EC> Any ideas? If your mouse is a stock Microsoft mouse (like this one but with NO wheel : http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/mouse/intellimouse.asp) it won't work under X with GPM running. You'll have to set your XF86Config-4 to /dev/psaux as usual and use PS/2 type. The wheel version of the mouse version will work with gpmdata but you'll have to set it to ImPS/2 to have it working. Hope it helps :) Greetings, -- _ / \___________________________________________ (OXOXOXOXOXOX) )_________________________________________/ Melkor \_/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] Debian: When code matters more than commercials...
