I am sure you mean /dev/ttyS0 not /dev/tty0 > I have installed M9.1 previously and I believe that I chose > USB mouse during the installation. It depends on where your mouse is actualy connected too and quite possably what type of mouse it is. > > I need to change this and don't know how. I looked at > tldp.org and didn't find anything.

USB mice do not normally connect to a seriel port, they connect to a USB port, some USB mice can even be connected to a PS2 port when a USB to PS2 plug is used. Not knowing what type of mouse you have and or where it needs to be connected one cannot really comment, on top of all that one needs to know which protocol it uses as well because it all depends on where its connected. > > Steve -- If the Linux community is a bunch of thieves because they try to imitate windows programs, then the Windows community is built on organized crime.
