My current mouse on one of my machines is going kaput, and I was curious to see if anyone had tried that new M$ IntelliMouse Explorer. A quick search of -questions [microsoft AND mouse] turns up nothing, and I use sysmouse for X, so I'm actually more curious of moused has a problem with it. Info on the success with (PS/2|USB) ones would be interesting, as well. The installed system is 3.3-STABLE, and will upgrade to 3.4-STABLE sometime this evening. I don't know if the mouse requires some specific drivers to crank up the laser or if it's built in, but it would be a neat thing to have. Please reply directly, as I'm not subscribed to -questions. -- Marius Strom Professional Geek/Unix System Administrator Alpha1 Internet http://www.marius.org/marius.pgp 0x5645C228 In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice... ...In practice, there is a big difference.
