I used that for a while when I had an ATI Mach8 and had no troubles. Try compiling the kernel with the mse0 driver installed. Do your MAKEDEV, if necessary, and symlink /dev/mse0 to /dev/mouse. Then make sure your /etc/XF86Config says the mouse device is /dev/mouse. You should then be ready to rock. There are some other configuration things you can do with a mouse, but they aren't usually necessary. -Matt ----- Matt White Production Director, WRCT Pittsburgh 88.3fm Email: mwhite+@cmu.edu http://www.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs/user/mwhite/www/
