I am a proto-newbie. I attempted an internet install of debian twice. Both times, the initial install from cd that came in the back of book went fine. Then I tried to let debian complete the install via the internet. After hours in downloading, my mouse stopped working. I was able to restart the X configure program, but something that had been downloaded had contaminated my installation, and I could not get the mouse to work again. So I tried again from scratch. Second time around, I had the same problem. Now I'm back to running RedHat and waiting for some cds to arrive in the mail.
A network install is great, if you have NO problems. But if you DO have problems, you have a broken machine, and no access to the internet for help. Not good. If someone responds to this post with a suggestion of how to fix the mouse, I will carefully preserve the suggestion until the cds arrive.
