Without regard to the options I passed to cp, it *did* do a recursive

hello debians
i have a new mouse here and can not get gpm to find it. the new
mouse is called 'Mouse in a box' by Kensington. it is a 2 button serial /
ps2 mouse. (it comes with a serial connector and a ps2 adapter). it runs
fine in dos/windows3.11 with the "Microsoft, or IBM PS/2" drivers.
It could be a lot of traffic on the network or it could be a
hardware problem. I have seen both cause that kind of response.
