TIA > You werent running the shell when you were using the mouse in linux Actually, from what I saw from my friends screen (he seems to like Linux..), the functionality is in the console driver. The button mappings were the same as you'd expect under X. I noticed in a different reply that this is supposed to go into 2.2. Will the mouse give xterm-like events, so my emacs menu's will work :-) or would that be impossible? (I am currently unable to run X, it has something to do with disk space, and non-VGA display hardware).. -- Zach Heilig (zach@blizzard.gaffaneys.com) Support bacteria -- it's the only culture some people have!
