I think I should be using "Intellimouse" or "Auto" for my usb mouse however debconf doesnt offer me the option.
The relevant section in /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is : Name: xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/mouse/protocol Template: xserver-xfree86/config/inputdevice/mouse/protocol Value: ImPS/2 Owners: xserver-xfree86 Flags: seen Variables: choices = ImPS/2 On another machine I have a full range of choices listed, and ImPS/2 isnt one of them. Is it ok to just edit this file and put the proper list in or is there some way of fixing it properly? I tried: apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xfree86 --purge but it didnt help Alan
