Re: GeForce4 card

[John Stevenson]

Try one of the following:

a) Change the Generic Mouse protocol to ImPS/2
b) Change the Configured Mouse to point to /dev/psaux
c) If you have a Logitec Mouse, try use the MouseManPlusPS/2 protocol.

I purchased a GeForce4 MX440 AGP8x 128Mb DDR VIVO DVI VGA card.
 

<snip>

'Startx' opened a screen (even showing the login panel), but
then aborted. The error messages refer to the mouse and
configuration I did not include (maybe came from 'mdetect').
I did a little googling, and it seems they may be because I
have an optical PS/2 wheel mouse. I have another box also
with the same type of mouse and the XF86Config-4 file on 
that is identical in the mouse sections (the graphics card and 
monitor sections are different though).

I can't work out what is causing the problem. Can anyone
please help.                    John.
