Just acquired an etrex gps. The unit comes with a serial cable . When I plug in the cable to the latest stable gentoo machine, the signals are (seem) to be interpreted as that for the system mouse. The mouse pointer flies all over the screen, opening and closing programs all over the place. Does anyone know why the serial port would be interpreted as a mouse input? How do I correct this? Any hints, pointers greatly appreciated.
