i am trying to work with MS wireless desktop thing. i do not have any other keyboard. the setup worked fine with Ubuntu, but fails with DSL

Specifically mouse does not work. i found serial port mouse i used to install Ubuntu on the machine and the serial mouse does work, but not the mouse in the wireless desktop set.

Wirelless desktop has this receiver (?) connected to one USB port and both keyboard and mouse are wireless.

Any way to install DSL with only a wireless keyboard ? Looks like i run with "Live CD" right now.

any ideas ? thank you

It is indeed very hard to find a small wireless keyboard. apparently producers think that media buttons are must. unfortunately they are wrong. there are people who uses PC not only for playing MP3 files which you cant download anyway (not legally at least)

I have installed an A4Tech wireless keyboard and mouse with no problems at all, just fires up an works stright off, no config to do at all. Please note the wireless mouse is a seperate piece of equipment and is not part of the keyboad.

If you do manage to find a combined unit with a pointing device as part of the keyboard, that works with DSL please let me know, as I have a purpose for one as well.
