I have installed X386 to my system and everything works fine except one IMPORTANT thing: the mouse doesn't work. The mouse pointer moves randomly when I move the mouse and sometimes it doesn't move at all. Pressing buttons have no effect. My system's configuration is 386/33 w/cache ET4000 SuperVGA Logitech Serial mouse I have set the mouse correctly to /usr/lib/X11/X386/Xconfig ("Logitech /dev/tty00") and the X386 doesn't give any errors. I have tried the mouse both with and without the FAS serial IO-driver (2.08.00). My operating system is ISC 2.0.2. Any help about this problem is very welcome. The X386 is great software, and I would like to use it. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Petri Tuomola OH2LJY | InterNet: ptuomola@clinet.fi or ptuomola@unidex.pp.fi Ylipalontie 10AC | FidoNet : Petri Tuomola@2:220/63 00670 Helsinki | UUCP : ...!mcsun!fuug!clinet!ptuomola

You might be using a Logitech mouse that emulates a Microsoft mouse. I had a similar problem (random motion) with a Logitech mouse and WordPerfect 5.1 under DOS; telling it I had a Microsoft mouse fixed the problem. I haven't tried compiling X386 yet, though. -- David J. MacKenzie <djm@eng.umd.edu> <djm@ai.mit.edu>

My operating >system is ISC 2.0.2. hi, my system is SCO-Unix, and maybe the device name differs, but try an entry like : Logitech 3 1200 ms "/dev/tty2a". (Logitech 3-button mouse, connected to serial port 2 with 1200 baud and ms protocol). micha -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ /~~~~~~~~~/ Rockinger Voice: 0511-8091223 ) [=II=========\\ Guitars GmbH /....../ Hannover, Germany Rockn' Roll is bio-degradable
