Suggestion: Install either the xserver-mono_3.1.2-5.deb or xserver-svga_3.1.2-5.deb Then bring up Netscape. Then use the Usenet search tool http://www.dejanews.com/forms/dnquery.html to find out what kinds of experiences other people have had with X and setups like yours.

It sounds like yours does. You need to rebuild your kernel with PS/2 support in it. You also need to specify in your /etc/X11/XF86Config that your mouse is a PS/2 mouse.
