RE: Yet another Mouse problem...



Thanks those who offered suggestions.  Turns out that the keyboard was
faulty, and not the mouse.  Replaced that, and Volia! the mouse was once
again mouse-ing around.

What worked for me (and forgive the lack of detail -- I have no access
to my Ultra2 from where I am right now) was configuring the mouse
through gpm (pointing to /dev/sunmouse with a type of "busmouse" if I
remember right), then using /dev/gpmdata for X.
