BusMouse (upper / lower case required I think).
This is what I had to do because those options were not shown during the

Ron,
I am using kernel 2.2.25 from the sarge area on debian.org. How do I tell
if I have ext3 in the kernel? This machine doesn't have enough space to
install all the source and such, so I will not be able to build my own kernel.

That worked. I wonder why the ADB mouse is not part of the config. Maybe
someone can fix that.

Ok, so why then do I get the same error when I try to start Dillo?
Shouldn't it start up whatever it needs? Do I need to installed the

I have 36mb of RAM. It is the hard drive space that is the main concern.
Can you tell me what are the minimum options I can choose during the debian

Does anyone know of a light weight desktop that I can install on my old

I know that the gnome desktop takes a lot of room.
