Description japj 1999-10-20 11:02:09 EDT

When using the graphical installer it found my Microsoft
2.1A serial mouse at com3. However X didn't get configured
correctly so I tried running the (textmode) mouseconfig
program and it couldn't find my mouse.

Still the case for 6.2 or pinstripe?

Comment 2 japj 2000-08-07 02:17:27 EDT

hmm, I can't verify it (anymore), since I sold my old PC and I got a new one with a ps/2 mouse.
