Install gpm (console mouse driver) Then set your xf86 mouse to /dev/gpmdata -----Original Message----- From: Ben Barrett [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, April 27, 2001 2:27 AM To: Eugene Linux User's Group Subject: [EUG-LUG:791] debian woody I just reinstalled over my Mandrake 8.0 beta2, with debian: whee!! I did a minimal install, <100mb, then switched apt sources to get the testing tree. After a little playing around, I got everthing going, and X started happily even! but no mouse :(( Has anyone had problems running mouse with debian before? esp. with woody?? I have never had problems with mice, esp emulating ms mice... even when I did Xfree4.02 under mandrake; but I've never done debian before. It's slick. I CANNOT IMAGINE why anyone would use apt-get instead of dselect. apt-update, maybe, but wow; why have there been so many apt questions when dselect does dependencies for you?? well gnitey; maybe I'll get mousey going tomorrow, I hope. I actually use the Kensington TurboBall but just use it as a 3-button mouse usu. It has 5, though, and the middle is a wheel. Any suggestions, debian users? thanks!! sweet potato dreams (ha, woody) ^sorry! ben
