new install no mouse

[Ben Miller <ben@lichtundmarmelade.de>]

Hello,
I new to Debian and this list.
I have just installed Debian Woody 3.0 with the 2.4 kernel.
My PS2 3-button Logitec Mouse does not work in console mode.
The mouse doesn't work under X either.

I have tried to find docs or FAQs but so far no luck.

Q1- How can I get my mouse going please?
Q2- How can I set the default runlevel to multiuser console mode? (I do 
not want to go straight into X).

Ben.
