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!

If it is possible to get it to work in XWindows, what do I need to do? It works fine in Redhat 7.1 Thanks Jeff
Re: [newbie] USB Mouse and Mandrake 8
Try using mouseconfig or mousedrake. I have a USB trackball mouse with a Mouse whell and 4 buttons and it works just fine. (Well I would like it to work differently, but it does the job and works well for how it's currently configured.) You could also use HardDrake to configure the mouse as well. Just be a lot of tabbing through to get to what you need. But it's do-able. tdh T.

Re: [newbie] USB Mouse
My BIOS had a setting to shut off the ps2 mouse port. After I did that I stopped getting an error when the mouse wasn't in the ps2 port since I was using my MS optical mouse in the usb port like it was meant to be. --Matt - Original Message - From: "Tony Branch" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 07, 2001 10:56 AM Subject: [newbie] USB Mouse I've never had success simply swapping a PS mouse with a USB mouse and getting the latter to work. What does work, for me, is a complete re-installation of the OS, LM7.1 or LM7.2. The USB is found during the start of installation and works completely fine.

CTK, Could you Please turn off the HTML on your posts and just post to the list in plain text? Please!? your HTML posts REALLY f$^@#ed up my KDE this morning and changed around the font settings. I thought I was going to pull out all my hair till I realized what was going on and fixed it. And yes...I'm sure it was something attachedto your posts. When I opened the attachment on your post that's when everything went to hell in a handbasket. My curiosity got the better of me, and well...the rest is an experience I'd rather not soon remember. thanks, -- Mark "If you don't share your concepts and ideals, they end up being worthless," "Sharing is what makes them powerful."

Re: [newbie] USB Mouse Recognition Problems
Mike: Odd. I've been doing a lot of reinstalling lately, and my experience is exactly the opposite to your's. LM 7.1 recognized my Logitech USB mouse right off the bat, but Win98SE refused to acknowledge it. I finally had to use the USB/PS-2 adapter to complete the installation, and add the USB part later. That may be because the VIA USB drivers can't be loaded until Win is installed. Stuff like this is the reason for the YMMV tag.

I had the same problem...actually, I have 2 wheel mice, one a PS/2 to use under LM 7.0 and a USB to use in Windows. 7.2 would only recognize the PS/2 until I went back to the install CD and manually configured it.

I just happen to see a problem with the USB detection of mice on Mandrake's last minute corrections faq..
