What I don't understand, is why it does not work the way it -was- configured. I went from a pentium 100 to a 1.3 Gig speed machine. A 686 kernel was the only change I made. Then I put the hard drive back in the original box, and using my old 586 kernel fired it up, and got this mouse problem. I get the idea that you gave me a work-around, which is fine. I just wonder how the actual problem came to be. Thanks again for your help. I am productive again...
