Hi All.

some time ago I posted about my problem of not getting the mouse to work in
mkd9.1 - when it is plugged in along a keyboard in a USB port through a
PS/2-->USB adapter (http://www.gwctech.com/ebproductdetail.asp?id=48). 
Things work  fine under winXP (both seen as HID devices) but under linux only
the keyboard works. Mousedrake is set up for a USB mouse and if I plug the
mouse sperately in USB, both mice (the external one along the notebook's
touchpad) work fine in X .

SO the problem must be in how the adapter is seen in linux ... and at last I
got a reply from a cable manufacturer; which claims the device works on linux
as well.

so now the question is : does Mdk9.1 support this thingy called "DUAL" HID ?

thanks,
Edo
