For the shortcut keys (E-mail and WWW), try getting a hotkey daemon patch. I know of two that work well. http://rick.vanrein.org/linux/funkey/ And http://sourceforge.net/projects/hotkeys/ The first page has a link to http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~pavel/keylink/keylink.html which is a keylink patch to the kernel. I believe this emulates mouse systems, so you might want to try that for your mouse problem. If anything else, you might be able to map the "power mouse on and off key" to do the intended function. Hope that this helps. ~Jeff~ -----Original Message----- From: newbie-admin@XFree86.Org [mailto:newbie-admin@XFree86.Org] On Behalf Of Charles A.

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?

Tilbury Sent: Friday, July 26, 2002 11:12 PM To: Newbie Subject: Laptop woes 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 _______________________________________________ Newbie@XFree86.Org *** To unsubscribe , or change message options, see: http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/newbie _______________________________________________ Newbie@XFree86.Org *** To unsubscribe , or change message options, see: http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/newbie _______________________________________________ Newbie@XFree86.Org *** To unsubscribe , or change message options, see: http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/newbie
