Hey all,

I have left this for a while (busy) am now back to it. The keymap works now.

Unfortuantely, under the console and X, the mouse doesn't seem to. The
only discussion I have seen recommended:

rm /dev/mouse

symlink /dev/mouse to /dev/usbmouse

check /dev/usbmouse symlinks to /dev/hidbp-mse-0.

I did that and everything looks ok. I also ran mouseconfig (version 4
something, came with experimental X version) but to change (set it to 1
button USB mouse and to emulate 3 buttons) .

Basically, the mouse rectangle doesn't come up when I move it in the
console. The keyboard works fine.

In X, the mouse doesn't move (and can't tell if picks up mouse clicks).
Strangely, I can't "three finger salute" (CONTROL-COMMAND-DELETE) to kill
X. Nothing seems to kill X (is the keyboard not working?). So I hit the
power button.

Any clues? Having the mouse is handy ;).

Thanks all.

BTW, CIV: CTP demo is out!!!! Gotta love Loki Games.

Ev.
