I believe these are the problems that are corrected by using the pin setup I quoted earlier -- a lot of mice need to be powered from the DTR line, which is not connected on a regular Mac serial adapter. If not, you should see the "3 Button Serial mouse Mini HOWTO" for hints on X configuration. http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/mini/other-formats/html_single/3-Button-Mouse.html --Peter
