Hey all - Having some problems running Xconfigurator. It starts out ok, identifies my video card, but then I get an error:
" There was an error reading the file /etc/sysconfig/mouse. Would you like to proceed in creating a new configuration?"
So I go ahead and do so:
" Mouseconfig can now update your XFree86 configuration file to reflect your new mouse settings. Would you like mouseconfig to make these changes now?"
And I say yes, please..
And Xconfiurator ends. Sitting on my screen is:
Xconfigurator: Critical error reading /etc/sysconfig/mouse. Xconfigurator: Check permissions of /etc/sysconfig/mouse. Xconfigurator: Also - make sure you are running this program as root
Now, permissions on /etc/sysconfig/mouse are 777 right now (owned by root, group root), an I am running as root. And strangely enough, my mouse works just fine - Microsoft Intellimouse. All the buttons work, the rollerball works...
I have looked on the net, in whatever docs I can find, and no love for getting around this problem. This came up because I wanted to run Xconfigurator in order to set my screen resolution to a higher value.
Any ideas out there? I'm running RH 7.1 (or 7.3 - I inherited this machine), kernel 2.4.2-2, XFree86 Version 4.0.3. I'm hoping to upgrade to RH8 before too long, but it would be nice to solve this problem...
