You won't be able to use a wheel with that though. According to http://kerneltrap.org/node/view/2199 (unfortunately, the kernel documentation seems outdated), "ExplorerPS/2" should be used with a 2.6 kernel; used to be "ImPS/2" with 2.4 (basically works with 2.6 as well). -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | Debian (powerpc), X and DRI developer Libre software enthusiast | http://svcs.affero.net/rm.php?r=daenzer
