If you've a PS/2 mouse you can try to stop gpm (console mouse) with "gpm -k". You mouse should work in X now. To solve this problem and to be able to use you within X and the console you can try to use /dev/gpmdata as you mouse device for X. regards, -- Staf Wagemakers email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] homepage : http://www.digibel.org/~staf
