Hello,

I just installed Linux-Mandrake 7.2 on my IBM A21e laptop.

The Pointing Stick on my laptop was working, but not my Microsoft Optical
Mouse connected to my USB Port. I tried to enable my Mouse. Now, neither my
Mouse or my Pointing Stick works. Any ideas on how to fix this?

This has been amswered many times. Search Google. Here's XF86Config-4,
you might have to change protocols etc;


Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Anaconda Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "mouse1" "SendCoreEvents"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection

---

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
# Modified by mouseconfig
Driver "mouse"
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
Option "Protocol" "PS/2"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "yes"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"

Please check that your kernel uses USB devices.
