Re: [newbie] Mouse back in a strage way...
Hello, I have this script allready in the XF86config-4 file. When you plug your USB mouse in the usb port ones KDE is running is it suppose to work strait away?

Bye Christophe Well it looks like you have a usb mouse, though I'm not sure that the make is right. Assuming you now have it set up in mousedrake as a USB mouse (scroll wheel?) and you are still having difficulties on desktop , then to my mind that points towards an X windows setup problem, or rather a screen setup/driver problem. Do you have any 3rd party driver software installed ? (like nvida , for instance) I'm not much good at X windows setup scripts. but the file in question will be /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 Look for something about a mouse,like this, Section ServerLayout Identifier layout1 InputDevice Keyboard1 CoreKeyboard InputDevice Mouse1 CorePointer Screen screen1 If this is correct and I'm not at all confident about my advice, there are people on list with much more knowledge than me, the mouse has to be set up to work with Xwindows. To sum up, you have an USB mouse in a usb hub and you have a USB mouse configured in mousedrake. then to my mind it has to be display ? or else you have some B 'horrible type of mouse no one has ever heard of, that works differently. If so, buy yourself a mainstream mouse. John -- John Richard Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

I can't look at it either but with Mandrake hardware detection routines run at boot up and if you constantly plug devices in and then unplug them, the hardware detection routines are going to continually try to change your configuration, including removing some drivers, installing others repeately. For some devices, it is often better to just hook them up, get the drivers working and then turn off the hardware detection service so that your configuration just stays the same until you decide to change it. -- Bryan Phinney Software Test Engineer Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

How do you turn of the hardware detection?
