So I put the Logitech mouse on and nothing would drive it at all in "gpmconfig". Then I got my two-button ps/2 mouse that I carry with my laptop. In "gpmconfig" it ran with "fups2". Restarted Debian and it still worked. Shut Debian right down and restarted and it still worked. Then I hit "startx", Window Maker came up and the mouse moved all over the screen. Whoooeee!! Deleted the "exit 0" on XDM and it booted graphically and the mouse has command of the screen. Thank you again Kent for all of your patient help. Debian would have been gone by now without it. Bill.
