Than you for your response Bret, Unfortunately kudzu does not seem to recognize the presence or absence of my mouse. If I unplug the USB mouse, the system does not indicate anything changed, and the cursor does not move. When I try to reboot withot the USB mouse plugged in, X11 does not come up. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
