Hi Tor I have edited /etc/X11/XF86Config with the settings for the mouse Section "InputDevice" Driver "mouse" Identifier "Mouse(1)" Option "ButtonNumber" "5" Option "Device" "/dev/usbmouse" Option "Name" "AutoDetected" Option "Protocol" "imps/2" Option "Vendor" "AutoDetected" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection But still the mouse fails to work. Just to clarify the mouse is a Logitech Cordless, which along with a Logitech Cordless iTouch Keyboard worked fine during the installation phase of SuSE 8.0. But the mouse, whose connector from the Logitech receiver box is plugged into a standard PS/2 mouse socket, fails to operate having rebooted back into Linux following completion of the install. I hope I have retyped everything exactly as it is in XF86Config as I am still using WinME for email, as I cannot finish configuring Linux till I get the mouse working and have not managed to find out how to store Linux text files so as to make them readable in WinME. I still cant get the dual booting to work as it appears the original WinME MBR has been totally lost, can anyone suggest how I might recreate such without having to remove Linux and re-installing Win98? I'm currently using a floppy disk to boot into WinME and the MBR for Linux.
