I am doing a fresh install and get to the point where the install asks: Do you want to run gpm's mouse-test program (Y/n)? (to which I respond) y Where is your mouse [/dev/ttyS0]? (to which I respond) /dev/psaux (since I have a Microsoft Intellimouse 1.2A PS/2 compatible) What type is your mouse (or help) [ms]? help (which gives me a list which is confusing for these reasons:
ms - For Microsoft mice (2 or 3 buttons)...... ---various obviously wrong choices.... ps2 - For most busmice connected to a ps/2 port (round with 6 metal pins). ---various other obviously wrong choices I don't know what a 'busmouse' is except I thought it was more or less extinct yet I am inclined to choose ps2. I know my mouse is a PS/2 type, connected with a round din plug installed on the mainboard. Whats the correct answer? Ron
