Hello list; I am posting from W98se which feels really wierd. I installed FC2-test-2 on a good system with an Artec A4 PS/2 Trackball and lost it. The mouse does not work in command line or X. I have restarted gpm and edited the crap out of /etc/X11/XF86Config. I have searched the archives and the web and need help. I know that there is a "Test" list but my mailbox is jammed up and I cannot subscribe to it at the moment. My system is an older Athlon Classic Slot-A 650, 256M mem. Asus motherboard with the VIA chipset. Here is the info: lsmod: Module Size Used by parport_pc 20416 1 lp 9068 0 parport 36168 2 parport_pc,lp autofs4 16896 0 8139too 22016 0 mii 3712 1 8139too crc32 3968 1 8139too ipt_REJECT 4736 1 ipt_state 1536 1 ip_conntrack 24368 1 ipt_state iptable_filter 2176 1 ip_tables 13568 3 ipt_REJECT,ipt_state,iptable_filter ide_cd 32260 0 cdrom 29468 1 ide_cd floppy 53808 0 sg 28064 0 uhci_hcd 35228 0 usbcore 91956 3 uhci_hcd nls_utf8 1664 1 nls_cp437 5504 1 vfat 13184 1 fat 39328 1 vfat ext3 94888 7 jbd 65432 1 ext3 aic7xxx 146776 1 sd_mod 12832 2 scsi_mod 101564 3 sg,aic7xxx,sd_mod lspci: 00:00.0 Host bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc.
