So if you have an usb mouse you just plug it in and follow the manual ... Even to choose your desktop manager :-) So just _thank you_ to all the people that took on their time to do that. I wont be able to give back to the community anything excepted maybe to learn my children how to use a personnal computer (or anybody else tired from another system) And buy a good big french book if somebody knows ?
