OK, read that, but didn't get it, which of their
"rules" I'm actually violationg. Oh, and if I got
that right, are they seriously (even if indirectly)
favouring closed proprietary doc formats, such as
Microsoft Word, huh???
And to justify myself, if you'd go to check the
archives of this list, you'll find dozens of empty
bodys with message attached from other members!!!

Or maybe before that rather try to use included tools
;-)
1. <mouseconfig> :
#This part of the configuration process will create a
/dev/mouse link
pointing to your default mouse device. You can change
the /dev/mouse
type of pointing device. We will also use the
information about the
mouse to set the correct protocol for gpm, the Linux
mouse server.#
You get a list of all possible devs (incl.description)
to choose from,
so you just leave your Xconfig with /dev/mouse as you
change to where
that's linked. You'll also get gpm (mousecursor in
virt.cons. at boot-
time), which I suspect from your report you don't have
either???
BEFORE <mouseconfig> to avoid any possible confusion I
suggest every
time you do a <gpm -k> (for kill), though to get gpm
it might need a
reboot, not sure...
After quitting mouseconfig <cat /dev/mouse>, move that
animal around
and if it leves any traces there's hope...
Also there are some reports of gpm interfering with X,
so before
<startx> do <gpm -k>.
2. <xorgconfig>
3. <xorgsetup>
4. <xorgcfg>
which works in X-Win environment and wisely enough has
been foreseen to be functional without any working
mouse !!!

P.S.: Due to slow connection AND low budget I still
use Slack 9.0
(which has XFree86), so I did a quick check on the
Package Browser
for the equal apps, hope my info is not
out-of-date.....
P.P.S.:No, wouldn,t consider myself an expert; still
haven't ma-
naged to get Touchpoint & USB-Mouse working both at
the same time
under X, which in Knoppix/Debian works perfect...
