Thanks, I'll take a look at that.

you could remove kudzu from the startup scripts as well.

I believe kudzu is the program in Mandrake that does the configuring
of hardware.
I don't know how to stop it from trying to unconfigure the mouse but
you can change the timeout time.

"man kudzu" should help

My Mandrake 9.2 install successfully runs both my touchpad and a USB
mouse at the same time. During operation, I can unplug the USB mouse,
and the system carries on without complaint, using the touchpad. When I
plug it in again, it works again. So far so good.

If I start up without the USB mouse plugged in, the system says "Argh!
No USB mouse. Time to reconfigure!" or some such drama, and I have to
tab through to the Cancel option (or wait a further 25 seconds for it to
time out).

All I want to do is tell the system that if the USB mouse isn't present
when I boot up, don't worry about it - just carry on silently. No need
to reconfigure. The system is already doing this for the 1394 PCMCIA
card - if it isn't in, an error is displayed, but the boot-up continues
unabated.

I've trawled the net without success on this one.

Any suggestions?
Douglas.
