Serial mouse not working under Ubuntu 5.10
The dreaded "serial mouse" problem strikes again!
I've just installed Ubuntu as a trial to see if we can use it on our charity computer project where we re-sell donated old computers to low-income earners.
I seem to have hit a very standard problem under Ubuntu in that the serial mouse is not recognised.
I've changed the xorg.conf file so it contains the following lines:
Option "Device" "/dev/ttyS0"
Option "Protocol" "Microsoft"
but it still doesn't work. By that I mean that the cursor is on the screen but moving the mouse or clicking has no effect.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
Keith
