From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20030225 Description of problem: Red Hat Linux was installed with another type of mouse. After installation, /etc/sysconfig/mouse contained this text: FULLNAME="serial" MOUSETYPE="ms3" XEMU3="no" XMOUSETYPE="ms3" When "mouseconfig" was run to change the configuration to "Generic - 3 Button Mouse (serial)", the program would crash trying to reference the "DEVICE" item in one of its dictionary variables. Adding DEVICE=/dev/ttyS0 to /etc/sysconfig/mouse allowed the program to operate normally. Please fix the program to initialize all required variables to default values before loading the config file. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): redhat-config-mouse-1.0.5-1 How reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install with non-serial mouse 2. run mouseconfig 3. select "Generic - 3 Button Mouse (serial)" 4. hit the "OK" button Actual Results: program crashes Expected Results: program should show the serial devices available.
