Mine is a PS/2 one... better buy a serial mouse, right?
Thanks++ to all of you.

I am curious if the mouse was a PS/2 run through an adaptor to the serial port or the
serial mouse attached through a PS/2 adapter. In the first case, get a real serial
mouse. In the second,
run XF86Setup or XF86config and reconfigure the mouse driver.
Steve's advice is good, however. Stick with the serial mouse if you can.
