hi,

I was tring to setup my mouse, but neither of the given configuratoin works
i.e. if I setup as MOUSE_DEVICE - /dev/inportbm, inportbm, /dev/l..ibm,
l..ibm and all other, SYSTEST report that "mouse not responding". (setup -f
port)
If I set MOUSE_DEVICE as /dev/mouse or mouse - SYSTEST doesn't report
anything (think it works).
But If I setup in this way and try to run startx, in /var/log/startx.log I
get "too many links to mouse device" or something I can't remember now . So
I'm going to /dev directory and remake mouse links. ('cause /dev/mouse ->
mouse)
What I'm doing wrong ?!?

Next question - when I finally run XWindows it freezes to the "blue screen"
(something like NT BSOD :") /BlueScreenOfDeath/ but w/o text on the screen).
OK. My computer is with integrated video on the BX motherboard (SIS6326
chipset), so I think it also can be the reason - any suggestion to
workaround this or to run X on other way or ..... ?
When I made tests with old X11 (muLinux ver3.) it also freezes to the blue
screen.
Is it really necessery for the video card to support VESA, so XWindows to
run ? 'Cause this card support VESA only If I run in advance vesa emulator
or somehing.

Thanx alot in advance
