Subjectmore on mousesystems ps/2 problem
Well, thanks for all who replied. Since I wasn't clear enough, here some
things I didn't mention:
- When I said 'erratic behaivor', it meant (according to some people) that
MouseSystems redesigned the protocol, which makes the mouse kind of work,
but every 5 minutes while you're using the mouse, it moves the pointer
right back to the bottom of the screen. (Can't be a mouse problem since a
DejaNews search through the comp.os.linux.* groups showed people with the
same problem, and I just got the mouse two days ago.)
- It works in X if I do gpm -t ps2 -R and tell X to read /dev/gpmdata as a
MouseSystems mouse, BUT I want to use gpm too.
- Oh yeah, it works fine if I load DOS and start the mouse driver, but I
don't want to start DOS everyday of my life to start Linux. (lilo is much
friendlier)

BTW, thanks for all who replied.
