I was sure that I replied to this earlier today... Perhaps I sent only to
Kent and not the list.
Mouse is a PS2 mouse. X came up, but I could not move the pointer.
I found a 9-pin. X works with it.
I swear that I did have the PS2 mouse and X working together previously.
The machine was woody at the time.
I'd really like to get the PS2 mouse working. I've got 2 computers w/ 1 KVM
switch. Only right now I need 2 mice...
