Hi,

I've just managed to install DSL on my HP Omnibook 800ct (166MHz Pentium MMX with 32M RAM).  Everything is working fine except the built-in mouse.  Under other X servers (XFree86 and xorg)  it has worked fine as a PS/2 mouse at /dev/psaux, but under Xfbdev, it moves unpredictably and I get menus when I haven't pushed any buttons.  I had to attach a serial mouse so I could function well enough to post this.

Does anyone have any ideas how I might solve this problem?  I am enjoying Xfbdev's tiny memory footprint, but will install full blown X if I have to to keep from dragging around an external mouse.

I solved this problem by applying XFree86.dsl.
