I use a Microsoft (hey, it was a gift!!) serial (to ps/2) rf intellimouse with scrollwheel. Works great. I think you'll find that mice are fairly well supported uner Linux...BUT the main distro's sometimes have difficulty configuring them correctly. If you do run into trouble, best to use Knoppix config files, no matter what distro you run. Knoppix rocks at hardware detection/configuration. Klaus modifies Kudzu to his own (highly successful) taste.

What are linux users using in the way of mice these days?


I use a unbranded USB optical mouse with a scroll wheel. Works perfectly
and I'll never use PS/2 mice again. I also love the scroll wheel --- most
applications support it now.

And it cost $30 to $40 from Dick Smith (it was either $28 or $37, I can't
remember).
