Hello
I am using DSl 0.7 on an old AT Style Pentium 120 MHZ with 80 megs of ram. Sometimes it will pick up my serial mouse and some times it doesn't. I have also switched between com 1 and 2 and it just sometimes says, nope sorry no mouse. Any Ideas?

Edit the file /opt/bootlocal.sh and add the following line:

ln -s /dev/ttyS0 /dev/mouse

If running from liveCD then be sure to have /opt/bootlocal.sh in your filetool.lst
