Well, its cable ends in a PS/2 connector, but the only way I've ever made
it work is through the serial port (an adapter was provided).

Leaving the device of /dev/ttyS0 and making the protocol "IMPS/2" yields a
mouse that doesn't work, although I can still log in. Adding device psaux
not only doesn't fix the mouse, but also destroys the keyboard function,
so I can't log in, or switch to another VC. (had to reboot :-(
The only thing that has remotely worked is MouseMan with ChordMiddle, but
then, and only in xfig, the keyboard doesn't work.

OK, I recognize the quote, but I can't place it. What flick is it from?
