I have an ancient "Pentium-S" that I have installed DSL on.

It works well enough, except I don't have a serial mouse
(right now) and I have been trying to locate configuration
changes that are necessary for Fluxbox/kernel/what-not
in order to "emulate the mouse" but I have not succeeded.

A search for "mouseless" and every other combination
that I can think of (maybe I lack imagination?) has come
up with no results.

Thanks for any help!

If you want a keyboard-driven Fluxbox, you'll need to do a lot of editing to /home/dsl/.fluxbox/keys

Here's something to get you started:

Hi Andrew,

I think you need a different window manager. Read this.
http://www-106.ibm.com/develop....nWindow

The home page is
http://modeemi.fi/~tuomov/ion/

And you are lucky! It is available - the latest ion2 - in the repository to download and use! Welcome to DSL repositories :-)

just a small correction...the version in the repository is not the latest ion2.  The latest is  2-20040729, which may end up in the repository soon if I stop complaining about how much I dislike the default settings :D

In that case ion 3 is in the making  :D

The latest is not necessarily the best......
And.......
The default setting can be changed.
