i just installed deli linux on an old pc,( cyrix m2 processor,256 mb ram,6gb hdd) but i cant get the mouse to work ..its a serial 2 button mouse..what ahould i do now?

Although I am not familiar with how deli linux is setup, you should be able to configure your mouse by using the xf86config program. You will need to know a few things about your mouse. For more info on what you'll need, check this out: http://www.xfree86.org/current/mous... Just out of curiosity, what made you install deli linux?

thanks pestario.. first i downloaded deli linux for a friend of mine ,he wanted to start learning linux ..(he didnt want to install to his main pc,but to an old one with 32 mb ram).i searched a lot for a linux distro that could run from a really low end pc..and this deli linux was the only thing i found that could even run on 8mb ram..

google: Another way for your friend to get familiar with linux is to load a "live" cd/dvd. There are a number of distributions with "live" versions. A live version, does not install to the hard drive by default. It runs entirely from the CD and memory. Therefore you can run it on most PC's...when you are done remove the CD and boot into Windows like usual. Distributions that I know of that offer The LiveCd/DVD versions are: Knoppix Gnoppix CentOS 4.4 i386 I am sure there are others also. Harold
