Hello Michele.
Thanks for trying to help.

6r2

It shows the following (no name mouse, shuttle sound systems 48):
 0:      73920   timer
 1:       1794   keyboard
 2:          0   cascade
 3:         26 + serial
 6:         11 + floppy
13:          1   math error
14:       9743 + ide0
When I move the mouse and call cat /proc/interrupts again, the number  
after 3: will be increased. Does that mean the interrupts will be done?  
The systest command shows still no reaction on it.

The original Sound-Blaster on the other computer (the one with the
Logitech mouse) works correct. The one who doesn't is a compatible card  
(shuttle sound systems). If I understood right, it is not necessary to try  
6r3 for the none Sound-Blaster?

It is pluged in the serial port...
I also tried serial and bus protcol.
/dev/ttyS0
/dev/logibm
It did not work.
With /dev/ttyS0 cat /proc/interrupts shows (Logitech mouse, SB 16):
 0:      28582   timer
 1:        682   keyboard
 2:          0   cascade
 3:          1 + serial
 5:          7   sound blaster
 6:         19 + floppy
13:          1   math error
14:       8653 + ide0
15:          0 + ide1
The number after 3: never increases.
> will be R^4 possibilities :)
Fine, I thougt it would be much more.
So it takes only a few generations.   ;-)
