AFAIK, all PS/2 mice use the same protocol (more or less; mice with wheels appear to behave slightly differently). Serial mice use lots and lots of different protocols, though most more modern mice can capably pretend to be Microsoft Mice (TM). So if you had an old serial-only MouseMan, you'd tell XFree86 that you had a MouseMan, but with one (or pretty much any pointing device) connected to the PS/2 mouse port, you'd specify a PS/2 mouse. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://donut.mit.edu/dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
