15. Mouse Tail

Much of the information for this document has been trawled from the various linux newsgroups. I am sorry I did not keep a record of everyone who has indirectly contributed by this route, thank you all very much.

So, to sum up:

• Even cheap 3 button Microsoft mice can be made to work.
• Configure your copy of X to expect a Mouse Systems mouse.
• Hold down the left button at power-on to switch the mouse to MouseSystems mode.
• You might need to hold the left button down when starting X.
• Mice are more intelligent than you think.
