I have just installed Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 rev 1 "woody". I can bring up gnome just fine but when I try to bring up kde I get the following message:

I do have /dev/input/mice and I am using a PS/2 mouse. Any help would be appreciated!
/dev/input/mice is for USB mice. For a PS/2 mouse you want /dev/psaux.
Also, ImPS/2 is for scroll wheel mice; if you don't have a scroll wheel, just plain PS/2 is probably what you want.
