I just wanted to put in my two cents worth and say that what got a working mouse
for my microsoft intellimouse explorer was
cd /dev
mknod usbmouse c 13 32
Then of course you have to make sure you're loading all the proper kernel
modules for it.
Hope that might help.

/dev/input/mice applies to the device file in the same way.
I'll get to it in

Hello Dark Elf,
I have some suggestions that might work. I didn't really see an
unresolved symbol problem myself, but maybe I missed it. I'm running
unstable myself, so your package may be a little differently named
depending on what version of debian you're using. But I would sugg
apt-get install kernel-source-2.2.19
Then I think you have to untar or bunzip2 it like so...
tar zxvf
or
tar jxvf
Then it should make a directory called 'linux' and you can optionally do
the following (it's a good idea)...
mv linux linux-2.2.19
ln -sv linux-2.2.19 linux

I get 'unable to fetch' error, or after a successful apt-get
update the apt-get dist-upgrade gives http 404 errors, then I change
servers in my sources.list and try again. Sometimes the dist-upgrade
says there's no packages to update. I usually try a few times and then
it goes. I dunno wh

Hi,
I found that I type 'la' by mistake more often than 'sl', so I made
symlink for sl to la. :-) I Love that train coming down the track! Ok,
so there's no track. Maybe that could be in a future version of sl?
Anyway, I love that choo-choo.

Hello Wayne,
I always upgrade my kernel with kernel source that I have
downloaded. But I would think that if you are using apt-get to upgrade
your system, that it would offer you a newer kernel via it's upgrade
method. If you're not using apt-get you could download a newer kernel

-L option myself, it seems like I have seen it in the manpage for cp
for a long time and therefore think that it's a valid option even in
older versions a cp, but not sure. For me it shows as '-L, --dereference

Hi,
No. Nothing wrong there. Says 'OK'. I'm not exactly certain what the
remainder of the line means. It may mean the the kernel is using a
compiled in bugfix for buggy chipset/fpu's. Or it may mean that it
reports errors based on an exception with a value of 16. I'll bet

Maybe the 16 is the cpu register being used to detect possible
errors?

Hi,
I'm reading the man page for XF86Config to try to come up with a
solution. I see in there an option called 'Virtual ' that
looks like it would be in the Screen Configuration section. Do you have
any line in you're XF86Config-4 file that has 'Virtual' on it? If so it
is probab
in there? That
might fix it. Not sure if that works ok on potato or not, if potato is
what you're using.
HTH,
