That's the distros subtle way of saying "Rich, buy new hardware." They
knew you still had serial mice sitting around and wanted you to see how
nice optical usb mice were. :)

I've been trying a bunch of live as well as a full install of Fedora
Core 5, and apparently there's no default serial mouse configuration!
What's up with that? Ubuntu, CentOSLive, even Knoppix doesn't find the
serial mouse on this box. Got FC5 to work by manually finding,
downloading and installing system-config-mouse and running it. That
apparently set it for X as well.
Anyone have any idea why this isn't still in default configs? (Strange
box, only one ps/2 port.)
Oh, Knoppix v3.3 found the mouse fine, but 3.9 didn't. Weird. How do I
configure a mouse without a mouse in X, for example... :)
Thanks,
Rich
