Hey, Rick! Is you mouse a PS/2? Your problem might be that /dev/psaux wasn't mounted. Another thing that occurs to me are the mouse protocols. The most commom are Microsoft, Logitech and Mouse Man (? not sure here!). If you're using XF86Setup, it should be fairly easy to test these possibilities (to run XF86Setup, cd /usr/bin/X11 and then type ./XF86Setup). Hope this helped. Best regards, Henry L.
