and further to this problem...
I'm running woody and have never been able to get my mouse (PS/2 3button emulation) to cut and paste. It works fine under gpm/console, but not KDE. I'm not sure if these two problems are related. OTOH, KDE works fine except the mouse. On Fri, 4 Oct 2002, Sorensen, Grant wrote: > Hi all, > I've installed Woody but can's get the Xserver to load. KDE aborts when > initialising peripherals.
