Here is another data point:  The RedHat V7.3 GUI install allows this button
to work, too.  I believe that it uses the VGA16 server, doesn't it?  Does
anyone know how to set up the SVGA server (using the savage driver) so that
this button can work?  Or at least where this may be documented?

Thanks,
Charles T.

Hello everyone.

I just got a new HP Pavilion ze1250 laptop.  Red Hat V7.3 installed very
well on it.  XFree86 seems to work using the vesa graphics modes.  There is
one problem.  There is a button that is used to turn the touch mouse off.
Before I start X or switch to init level 3, this button works perfectly.
After I start X it is not recognized.  If I start X with the mouse off,
neither the keyboard or the mouse work.  I can still do telnet and reboot
the computer.  I have tried it using fvwm, Gnome, and KDE, all with the same
results.  I am using the /dev/psaux device for the mouse.

I am guessing that there is a simple way to fix this.  I would also like to
the get the "EMail" and the "WWW" shortcut buttons working if possable.  If
anyone could please point me to a link or something, I would be grateful

TIA,
Charles Tilbury
Round Rock, TX
