I did a reinstall. The first time I installed potato, the mouse was all fd up, it sticks to the bottom of the screen and refuses to com up. I can see the tip of the pointer on the bottom edge of the screen. When that happened, I ran XF86Setup and changed a couple settings on the mouse and I think the meer using XF86Setup set the mouse right. Honestly I don't think it matttered what I picked in XF86Setup, as long as I was not too far off based.
Now I'm a bit frustrated because XF86Setup won't even come up. I can manipulate the window menu system with key combinations from the keyboard, but when I choose XF86Setup, the hard drive grinds a little bit and then nothing. I started XF86Setup from the command line and I get "X11TransSocket UNIX Conect:can't connect: errno=111" and I get the message "unable to communicate with X server" I'm using the svga X Server for my card. The other really frustrating thing is when I bring up windows in XWindows, the top 1/4 to 1/3 of the window is above the top of my screen. I have not found anything to remedy this. Again, on the first install, I was able to run XF86Setup and it fixed this crap. Any help would be appreciated. Paul
