Hi all, I just installed Redhat 5.0 offical. But i have a problem in X with
my PS/2 mouse. It doesnt work! it just stays in the middle of the screen...
I configured it in installation and then tried to configure it again by
typing: /usr/sbin/mouseconfig. But still I had no luck. Its not like my
mouse is incompatible it was in the menu of mice. Also in installation it
says that X is better used with a 3 button mouse do u want to make your
mouse copy this by pressing both buttons at the same time to emulate a 3
button. I said yes and then i tried no still no luck. DO i need to buy a new
mouse? (I wouldnt think so) How do i configure it properly to make it work?
any help would be great any suggestions etc..

thanks all
