Thanks for all of the help from everyone - eh, I sounded quite desperate, but I was really pissed off that day, returning from a 10 hour shift with only a few precious hours to spend at home and my debian giving me shit for no reason. Due to all of the suggestions I've been given here, I've pla

Hi, I'm having a whole damn lot of problems here, pretty much all of a sudden. Ever since a good friend helped me install debian (let's say he's a little on the hectic side.. I didn't see everything he did), there was a problem with getting X to like my mouse (IntelliMouse Explorer).. I had to t
