As I said a few weeks ago, I was given a 486 with 16MB RAM, 520MB
HDD, etc, with PS/2 mouse/keyboard connectors. I had been using an
old mouse connected to COM1 as Mouse Systems 3 button mouse, in DOS,
Windows 3.11 and Slackware Linux. But I recently saw and bought a
green translucent PS/2 mouse. Its pretty and moves nicely. Its an
"Iota CREBEP-E1" with FCC "NHM-CREBEP" but this shouldn't mean much. :)
I had almost no problems getting it to work with Linux; the command
"gpm -t ps2" (instead of "gpm -t msc") worked, and even allowed all 3
buttons to work as expected.
The question I need to ask is how do I get drivers for DOS and/or
Windows. I tried ctmousep and another driver I found on the harddrive,
but they wouldn't recognise it at all. In windows I tried a couple of
the default drivers, none worked, one locked the computer up.
I did try to search the internet but nothing promising came up.
Thanks in Advance.
