I have a Dell Latitude LS with a synaptics touchpad that SiSoft Sandra
informs me is attached to some sort of internal ps/2 port. But if i run it
in linux with the ps/2 drivers, it just wanders all over the desktop. Help?

I have an L400 which uses the same touchpad. Are you having trouble in X
or in Console mode? I found that if GPM was running while in X the
touchpad went crazy, so you might want to disable that. Hope that helps.

Thanks for the suggestion; I did have locales installed and thus configured,
but I tried reconfiguring and regenerating as per your suggestion. I also
tried playing with a few different settings for default locale and what
locales to generate; unfortunately I still get the gdk-warning:

only problems might be:
if you mess up with lilo, and install it in the wrong place, you could
corrupt the system so that the win system may be unbootable. There's
documentation in the lilo docs about this.

I've been trying to get my the scroll-wheel to work on my Logitech wheel
mouse with no luck.
My XFree86-4 config file looks like this and I have the mouse plugged
into the PS/2 port.

Hello. :) I've installed Debian (Woody) on a used Thinkpad 770E I just
bought. Everything works beautifully; X+KDE is running surprisingly
quickly at 1024x768. :) The only thing I can't figure out is the
sound. I've read that the 770 (no E) uses the cs4232 module, and that
the 770E needs Alsa'
