Even the setup told me what to use it would run into some kind of conflict where I had to use the key pad to move the cursor around. The xwindows would not come up even it understood my hardware very well. That was yesterday and I was ready to take the software back, actually I started downloading Debian. Then, this morning knowing I might loose 15% of the price if I return it I used this really generic mouse that my wife got at work (everybody got one like a courtesy(???) with the company name on it) and I was able to get it going. Since the whole configuration was messed up (lots of dependencies from incomplete configuration) I reloaded the entire software, well, that is what I am doing right now!!! Better be working!!!
