Sometimes when I boot DSL on my FC4 (i386 Pentium III) machine the mouse works for about 5 seconds but then stops. The keyboard still works but I don't know what I can do with that. One thing Ive noticed is that Fedora Core picks up the mouse as /dev/mouse0 but DSL uses /dev/psaux (its a generic ps/2 wheel mouse). Any suggestions welcome.

Also, is there any way to log on to the existing installation (eg as one of my FC4 logins) and use those files with DSL? or is it disabled for security reasons? Can I use RDesktop?

Many thanks

Mark
