Well, I'm not at all clear on how that worked, but
it worked! (I'll have to read up on ./MAKEDEV)
Anyway, it finally did the trick -- I ran that
command, and a /dev/input/mice file appeared.
I then did dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 and
set the mouse to /dev/input/mice, then edited
/etc/X11/XF86Config so that device: said
/dev/input/mice, then did startx and...
Presto.
I hope this is of help to anyone else out there
who runs into this and am eternally obliged to
Mr. Tillman for his patience and effort.
Mike
