After removing the patch PS/2 mouse works fine with gpm. Do you have the problem with both boot and main kernels? Nope, I fetched source rpm from cooker and compiled it with/without the psaux patch. And there's a difference with/without it. Abel Cheung

Is this something that is easily floating around where it can be backed out by TP users? I'm not too terribly averse to rebuilding a kernel, though that would be a first in my mandrake experience. I agree that it should be noted. When a fixed kernel is available then it really should be noted. -randy

[Cooker] Why version 8.0, and when?
AFAIK, the last official version of Mandrake was 7.2, will the next version be called 8.0? (...since I see this on the beta 3 install screen..., wouldn't this be misconstrued as "false advertising"? Also, will there be another beta before the official release? ... and ideas about when the next offical Mandrake will be released? (a month, a week, just an approximation, please!).
