FWIW I use an old PS/2 Logitech trackball on Linux with no problems (apart from two of the 5 buttons not doing anything, but I never used them anyway even on Windows. For hardware compatibility issues its less important whether the vendors officially support Linux as whether Linux supports it. The best bet for that is to search the support forums for your distro (and related ones, so for Mint I look at Mint, Ubuntu and Debian in that order) Sometimes there are additional driver packages you can install. For things like keyboard and mice I always keep a cheapo USB pair around so I can always get up and running then I can usually persuade the distro to accept whatever fancier gear I want to use later. -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ http://www.amazon.com/author/alan_gauld Follow my photo-blog on Flickr at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
