I just finished installign mandrake 9 and my mouse will not go side to side only up and down. I have made the change to modules file adding 'hid' (just like all the other versions before) but this time it did not work. Does anyone have any opinions of fixes for this problem.
I am having the exact same problem. Durring install I told it that it is a USB intellimouse. The mouse worked for the rest of the insatll GUI. but then when I booted to KDE moving up and down with the mouse caused the pointer to move up and down slowly. Whereas. moving the mouse side to side moves it up and down very quickly. Also middle clicking moves the mouse to the right about 10 pixels. Any ideas?
