I have a Compaq Presario 5184 with an oem 2 button mouse.  It has a
ps/2 driver from logitech.  I recently dual booted with Win98, the
original operating system and debian(Woody).  When I log into x, my
mouse won't move at all. I configured it for ps/2/ and dev/paux. When
I sign out I get ee errors, that say that x can't find a mouse in
dev/imput/mice. Can anyone help?  I am a linux newbie, so you have to
be precise.  I installed it so I could learn it. Thanks.
