Glad to hear it. You can probably use that optical mouse as well (I
have
a Logitech optical, which works great), but you just have to change
/dev/psaux back to /dev/input/mice.

I will confess to some prior usage of both debian and unix. I was
running Potato... and its predecessor about 2 years ago, with mutt, vim,
gcc, exim, mostly and came back to try again when a Woody CD
distribution became available with support for my Nvidia graphics card.

Hi,
