X fails because I cannot configure the mouse. A USB wheel mouse. Unfortunately my machine has four USB ports, no PS/2 or serial ports, so using a different mouse type is out of the question.
Debian version is potato. I would like to avoid having to download woody if possible. Strangely, an probably of no relation to my USB problem, dmesg reports that a PS/2 mouse port was found. STrange because there is no PS/2 port on the machine. Please help! Matt "Dans les champs de l'observation, le hasard ne favorise que les esprits prepares." - L. Pasteur. Mr. Matthew D Linden B.Sc.
