To stop it, run (as root) /etc/init.d/gpm stop To stop it permanently, "apt-get remove gpm". You might be able to fix it by editing /etc/gpm.conf. I have: ,----[ /etc/gpm.conf ] | device=/dev/psaux | responsiveness= | repeat_type=raw | type=ps2 | append="" `---- Then edit your XF86Config so that X uses /dev/gpmdata as the mouse device.

Should this title bar or slit(blackbox) be on Eric> the bottom? I am new to the X-window environment so I don't know. Yeah. It's supposed to be there. (It's only there for blackbox -- the other wm's don't have it.) I can't say that I've used blackbox much, so I can't tell you what it is. I think something to do with virtual desktops or some such thing. - -- Hubert Chan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - http://www.geocities.com/hubertchan/ PGP/GnuPG key: 1024D/651854DF71FDA37F Fingerprint: 6CC5 822D 2E55 494C 81DD 6F2C 6518 54DF 71FD A37F Key available at wwwkeys.pgp.net.
