RE: [newbie] HELP!! THE INSTALLATION DON'T WORK

2000-03-06 Thread Pittman, Merle

I had similar prob.  Eventhough my mouse is com1 in Win98 I had to install
mandrake 7.02 in expert mode and manually select com2 to get the mouse
working.  Don't know why, but it worked ???

 COM1 for mouse??  That's for a printer, usually.

 PLEASE
 
 I just bought the MANDRAKE 7.0 and when the
 installation begins he does't recognizes my mouse.
 I can let the installation go on because I can select
 some things using TAB ( like chose the partition in
 what linux will be installed ).
 
 My computer is a K6, 124Mb ram, 1 HD 1GB Maxtor (
 where the linux will be installed ), and 1 quantum
 fireball 2.4 GB.
 
 Windows and other linux versions recognizes the maouse
 at com1 /dev/tty0 as a old logitech serial mouse, but
 my MANDRAKE 7.0 don't, even when I choose the expert
 option of installation and set the com1 as used by a
 mouse.
 PPPLLLEEEAAAEEE how can I fix this???
 
 Best Regards
 Antonio

get Mandrake 7.02.  I was having the same problems with 7.0 and I downloaded
the ISO for 7.02 and everything worked like a charm.  Mandrake does have a
patch for this error on their website but I couldn't get it to work.

Do you have a PS/2 port (psaux) in your computer? I do, and it keeps Linux
from seeing that I have my mouse in ttyS0. After I install, I have to
manually edit /etc/X11/XF86Config and change "PS/2" to "Microsoft" and
"psaux" to "ttyS0".

When I installed 7.0-2, I entered "linux text" at the boot: prompt, and
that gave me a true text install. I had to do this because the graphic
install does not provide full keyboard function in the "disk druid"
section.
