All -
I am having problems getting DSL to recognize my USB mouse. It is a newer Logitech with 2 buttons and a scroll wheel. I choose the "USB Mouse" option when booting from CD but when I get to the desktop it will not work.

Any ideas? Thanks

well, looks like ive got the same problem. DSL Starts, lets me choose my Resolution etc. and afterwards my mousepointer doesnt move a in inch... :-(
Mouse: Logitech Mouseman Wheel USB

(in the initializiation DSL reports that the USB mouse was found !!)

Any suggestions or is it _just_ a bug???

Regards,

tron

to be honest, i just found out that linuxcd.org, where i got my DSL Version from, only hosts the old (maybe the oldest) version (0.4.2). ATM im downloading the new one (so i hope its the newest, 0.5.2)
I hope that was the reason why my version didnt work

Wish me luck :laugh:
