mouse



I have installed debian 2.1 on a Gateway PC-Plato MB, ps2 mouse, standard keyboard. I left the configurations just as the set-up recommended them (I've been using Slackware and was unfamiliar with Debian's protocols). I got all the way through the set-up including the Xwindows set up. The only problem is that the mouse won't move on the screen in response to the mouse on the pad. The XF86Config put a mouse at /dev/mouse-still no mouse action after setup-the mouse doesn't have a pointer, just an X on the screen. Is there something I can do? Have I missed configuring the mouse port? I'm really at a loss. This machine will run Slakware, Suse, Red Hat and Caldera, but i can't get a mouse to work on it. Thanks for your help.
