The last problem is probably related to the imps2 mouse problems, if you choose an imps2 mouse in the graphical installer, then gpm is configured for this, but X iis still configured for generic PS2. See bug: 8754 The last problem (choose MouseSystems mouse, get Microsoft in XF86Config) was very probably the same problem as the IMPS/2 problem reported in bug 8754. Atleast now that bug 8754 has been fixed, this problem is gone. The second "problem" is fixed too, if I choice a MouseSystems mouse now, I need to throw the switch to MouseSystems in the next screen, so to installer changes it on the fly now. Afaik mousesytems mouse can't be probed, so my current mouse-sytems install looks like: -set mouse in 2 button (M$) mode -start the installer -select MouseSystems -click next -set mouse in 3 button (Mousesystems) mode, since this is wat X is talking now. This works for me, and you have todo the same sorta trickery to get win9x to install. (Actually you have to download seperate drivers to get the 3 button mode to work so thats worse). So all in all I concider this bug fixed in the 4 March snapshot, so I'm closing it. |
