Hi all im new to DSL, I use Kubuntu 5.04 on my main PC but im looking to use DSL on the above mentioned laptop, i can install and run DSL ok apart from the touchpad mouse, it moves left, right and down but not up??? So i start with the pointer in the middle of the desktop but cant get any further as the pointer moves to the bottom and thats it.... im not sure if the keyboard is resopnding either if i Ctl, alt and backspace i can stop X and from the console i can restart X OK, so i think the keyboard is ok but not sure, if somebody can test this for me, "if you right click on the desktop can you use the arrow keys to navigate the menus? When in console i have tried mouseconfig with all different options but always the same

I would realy like to get this working so if anyone has any ideas i would be geatfull... Thanks again...
