I'm in Slackware, and the mouse doesn;t work, it's a USB wireless mouse. Also, LILO boots the wrong windows, how do I change that? Thanks!

For the second point: please post your /etc/lilo.conf as well as the name of the disk partiton where the "right" Windows is installed.

What kernel did you use as default?

That's the lilo, it offers me Windows and Linux as choices at startup, but Windows boots hda1 when I need hda2. I see hda2 in there already though...what does that mean?

Did you change lilo.conf manually without running the lilo command afterwards? If so, login as root and just type "lilo".

Alright! Thanks, got the LILO working correctly, now I just have mouse issues. Got a standard PS/2 mouse, plugged it in, ran mouseconfig and it still isn;t working...any suggestions? It's a really old PS/2, no scroll wheel or anything.

What driver did you put into xorg.conf?

You first need to figure out, if your mouse was recognized by kernel and check what device it is mapped on.
So try something like or .
