A few questions for you: 1) When you first run the program, what mouse is selected in the list? 2) Is the mouse misbehaving in X or in console or both? 3) Can you attach the contents of /etc/sysconfig/mouse and /etc/X11/XF86Config? Created attachment 82924 [details]
/etc/sysconfig/mouse
Created attachment 82925 [details]
/etc/X11/XF86Config
1) When you first run the program, what mouse is selected in the list? Microsoft Intellimouse PS/2 2) Is the mouse misbehaving in X or in console or both? What happens is that the Gnome stops working right and the mouse pattern becomes unusable. If I click on the redhat in the lower left start menu, it wont show me the menu choices. So I know it doesnt work in X. But I dont know about console. How would I check this when it doesnt work under X? 3) Can you attach the contents of /etc/sysconfig/mouse and /etc/X11/XF86Config? I attached both of them before I enter mouseconfig. If you want the ones after as well, please advise. Ok, wait a minute. Did you run redhat-config-mouse or mouseconfig? And yes, the contents of the files after running the program would be interesting as well. I ran the graphical mouse program from gnome, which is redhat-mouse-config correct? I said mouseconfig in my previous post which was a typo. Sorry about the confusion. How would I manually get into mozilla without my mouse from a regular windows keyboard? If I can figure that out, I can easily send over the attachments. Thanks. Ok, I was confused there for a second. I don't know how to navigate mozilla without a mouse. Maybe you could have an xterm open, run the tool, Alt-Tab back into the terminal and make copies of the files to the /tmp directory, then run the tool again to unbreak the mouse. Then start mozilla and attach the files you copied into /tmp? Would that work? I notice that if I click on close window in the mouse area, the mouse type works. But if I click ok with the default mouse setting it messes it up. Ill try what you said. Any more info here? Closing due to lack of information. |
