Just to mention from the begining, it is my first linux installation ...

and of course some very simple question for you probably...

I've just installed a Mandrake version and couldn't find a suitable mouse type to chose. I have a Logitech Cordless Elite mouse and keyboard.

The keyboard is working just fine. Don't need any extra keys ... for now.

As funny as it sound, when I chose USB wheel mouse type, when I was testing it during the inastallation, on my mouse movements it was showing me the wheel moving, and some cursor moves, but totaly wrong ones ...

Any help, anybody for a

Thanks a million.

Try running the mouse config again. It's possible that something got a little messed up. You can run it from the command line as root. Just type mousedrake

Well, somthing got really messed up...

I've found the mousedrake and the sysconfig/mouse but I can't get it moving at all now.
In the installation process, at least I had "some" movement. Now there is none. I've tried reconnecting the mouse to its device but still nothing.

Anything I choose it doesn't seem to do any good.

What am I doing wrong ?

fixed, but not by linux

I've just plugged in both cables on PS/2 instead of one on USB.

linux=too much trouble for nothing ... get windoze

But in a way it was, Linux wanted it on the PS/2 connector and once you satisfied it, it satisfied you.

Linux = Free, only costs your time.
Windows = $99 and up plus countless MS beaurocratic bombardment.
Having a stable Linux machine that doesn't need proprietary activation = priceless.
