I have recently loaded apcmag's Red Hat on my computer but I am having
trouble with X windows.  The main problem so far is with the mouse.  I have
tried almost all of the Linux mouse drivers using /usr/sbin/mouseconfig and
I have tried an ms ps2 v2.1 and an ms serial v2.0 mouse but as soon as I
move the mouse the system locks up.  I can move around the screen by using
Ctrl+Shift+F9,10,11,12 and clicking with the left mouse button but this
doesn't work with everything.  Also there seem to be other strange things
happening but being new to Linux I am not sure of how the system is meant to
work anyway.  Should I delete all my installation and start again or is
there some way to fix the problem.  Please help if you can  JR.
