If you have a graphical login, hit CONTROL-ALT-F2 or CONTROL-ALT-BACKSPACE - you'll get to a text login. Now, login. After login, type mouseconfig (if that doesn't bring up the config util, you can try either /sbin/mouseconfig or /usr/sbin/mouseconfig) Follow the steps as presented - making SURE you're choosing either the Logitech mouse that matches the one yer using, or the closest match to the USB version you've got. After that - unless you get errors - either restart by typing reboot, or power off by typing poweroff...THAT should do ya...lemme know what happens Ram!
