Magic - thanks Paul, that did the trick!  My set up is somewhat twisted in
that the dhcp server is on another box, and it's all running on non
supported what nots.  It's an evil mixture of gentoo, redhat and solaris
fetching bits from here and there and everywhere for tftp and dhcp etc.

So the utfwadm command was what I needed, I've never seen that one
before, as everything has been hacked together by hand before now.

If it is of any help the version string came out to be:

3.1_21,REV=2005.06.09.19.01

The flash worked correctly, and the DTU came up with the new version just
fine, as I can see in the logs, when the DTU restarted:

{terminalIPA=192.168.1.114, type=pseudo,
fw=3.1_21,REV=2005.06.09.19.01,Boot:1.4; 2000.07.20-14:34:45-BST,

However no joy on the wheel mouse front, never mind.  It was worth a try.

Otto, anything else you would like me to test on the mouse side of things?

Best,

j.
