So I installed SuSE 6.2, but I couldn't get the mouse to work under X. 
It behaves erratically.  I've seen the problem before using the PS/2
IntelliMouse driver under Red Had with a PS/2 IntelliMouse, but in SuSE,
it happened with the regular PS/2 driver and the generic Microsoft mouse
driver as well.

So I said fuck SuSE and tried RH6.0.  Mouse works fine, but for some
reason Xemacs isn't installed and I can't find the RPM anywhere on the
CD.  Those bastards.  What's worse, when I try to install lesstif, which
is needed by xmcd, rpm goes into D (uninteruptable) mode and sits there
until I kill it.  I've tried two version (0.86 and 0.88) of the lesstif
rpm with the same results.  0.86 works fine on RH5.2.

Any suggestions?  I think it's time to go back to Debian.
