Status in “casper” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “xorg” package in Baltix: New Bug description: When the X server is automatically configured, users with serial mice must perform additional manual configuration, specifically: 1. [only for releases prior to 6.06/Dapper] Install the 'joystick' package (don't ask) 2. Run 'inputattach --help' and find the appropriate protocol option to match your mouse 3. Run 'inputattach <protocol option> /dev/ttyS0'.
