I have been unable to find a device name for a serial mouse so figure it's simple and one of those things that is just taken for granted. I have RTFM, and searched man pages and FAQ's for the answer, and am going crazy Also, I recompiled my kernel for ps/2 mouse support, but when I startx, my mouse acts like it is being actively jerked to the upper lh corner of my screen. I can move my mouse really fast to the lower rh corner, but when I release it, it goes immediately to the top, and then jumps to the left in 1 1/2" increments until it reaches the upper lh corner again. What am I doing wrong? (My XF86Config refers to mouse as /dev/mouse, and I created a symbolic link to /dev/psm0) Thanks Tyson Boellstorff Use Proportional Font: true
