Hello,

I have installed DSL in MS VirtualPC 2004. As a left-hander I have customised the mouse settings accordingly. After a restart is away to this setting again. What can I do, so that the setting remains saved?

Assuming you use the xset command to adjust your mouse, add that command to /home/dsl/.xinitrc (somewhere above the "case $DESKTOP" part), and make sure this file is being restored.

Thank you for the quick answer. Unfortunately, as Linux- and DSL-newbie I have no notion how I have to do this. I also don't know how this command looks. Can you help me please?

How exactly did you do this? I assumed you used the xset command, which can easily be included in a script.
