Hi All, This Linux wannabe needs some help before he gives up on Linux altogether. I'm trying to configure my Xserver with SaX, and this is proving to be VERY frustrating. The two-button Microsoft Basic mouse behaves very erratically. The cursor reacts reliably, but the mouse buttons don't. If I press F10 to activate the menu, then click anywhere to deactivate the menu, the mouse is good for ONE (more) click. One time I clicked on the "Next" button and sax advanced to the next device properly. Then, I moved the mouse to a different screen position and clicked. What?? The "Next" button depressed as if the cursor were positioned over it (which it wasn't), but sax did not advance -- nothing -- just a button going down and up, down and up. That's neat! Could it have something to do with the device it is linked to? Should I use /dev/ttyS0 or /dev/mouse? My video card is a Boca Basic Super VGA (ISA) card with a Cirrus Logic chip. Boca is not listed in the devices under the "Card" tab, so I have chosen Generic -> SVGA. My DTK (VGA) monitor is likewise not listed, and there is no choice for Generic. What do I choose in this instance? I am running an Intel Pentium w/ 48M RAM and am starting Linux via loadlin from a Win95 DOS mode boot. Should I boot from a Linux boot disk? Also, I noticed when I launch SaX it says something like, "scanning failed ... using XF86_VGA16". (My memory is not photographic.) I think this would indicate that SaX doesn't care for the SVGA config. ?? I've tried changing it .. at least I thought so. I've been thru it so many times now, I'm not sure what I've accomplished. I'm sure my dreams will be invaded. Does anyone have any suggestions? If it weren't for the fact that I promised a friend of mine that I'd set up a new multiuser system for him (and remove his dependence on his antique PC-MOS O.S.), I think I'd knuckle under and stay with Kro$oft. Eeeewwwww! TIA, Harland Grimes ________________________________________________________________ YOU'RE PAYING TOO MUCH FOR THE INTERNET! Juno now offers FREE Internet Access!
