Returnee to Linux - been away for a couple of years.... INstalled Slackware from fron of Linux Format Magazine... Text interface works fine (well, I can't find any problems with it)... The mouse works fine in this mode too.. Configged X-windows (oops X11 (?)) with xf86config, graphics work fine... Mouse doesn't... Hangs around in the top left hand corner and has to be coaxed out with a piece of Cheese..... And then it just zooms back again.... Using XF86config I have set the Mouse to 2 button, emulating 3, on port dev/mouse (the default)....
