This is apparently problem of some Arachne users <g> 
I was of course using mouse before I knew what is mode - it was especially
painful to learn it using former Czech Telecom analogue swithing boards
(they were fortunately replaced by digital switching boards recently...).

I got used to 9 pin connectors, and they were usually COM2..... so it is
true that usually the first switch of mouse driver I am looking is COM
port ;)
