Hello !

I've just installed Linux (RedHat from the last Infomagic's 6 CD set) on a
computer, it has an OEM Logitec mouse (DB9 - serial, 3 buttons). I've tried
all choices proposed by "/usr/sbin/mouseconfig", without success: "gpm"
doesn't recognises it (in text mode) - should I kill "gpm" and restart it ?
And under X-Windows, it's terrible: the mouse movements are transmitted
with something like a 10 seconds delay !! How can I fix this ? Is it the
same program "mouseconfig" ? I had never had any pb with mices under Linux
!!
Thanks in advance if someone can help !
