These two errors have nothing to do with XGGI. I experienced the first one before
with regular X-Servers - unfortunately I didn't remember at once. The second
error ... well it simply took me some time to find out what Andy perfectly summed
up his your last mail.

So this one should be correct ?
/etc/ggi/input/linux-mouse:
mouse imps2
/dev/mouse
"imps2" is my current setting after I read Marcus' mail "Re: on USB". Still in
GGI-programs my Logitech WingMan mouse (three buttons, no wheel) doesn't work on
the usb port although it does under regular X Servers. My kernel version is
2.2.14.

Nothing, simply nothing; but never mind! Now that I'm using kdm again I can start
it by clicking on the Netscape-button in KPanel like I always did ...
And so: This is my first mail written under XGGI!
