If you can login to the command line you can find your mouse by doing:
cat /dev/mouse

/dev/mouse, try /dev/psaux, or others you find in /etc/X11/XF86Config.

compatible with RedHat 9. The error that I have been getting with regard to
the error starting up Xwindows is that the mouse isn't

I installed RedHat 9 on my computer thinking it wouldn't be any big deal but
I was wrong in my thinking. I am having problems with my Xwindows and my
ethernet card. I am getting an error log created with my problem with
Xwindows but since RedHat isn't finding an ethernet card or at least an IP
