I have installed Fedora Core 2 and I had a few minor problems.
1)My serial mouse was detected by the installer (it probed it and detected a serial mouse), but the pointer never moved from the center of the screen. that led to the second problem, when I was prompted to choose my monitor from the list it is impossible to choose without a mouse. All i could do was scroll to Samsung, but I couldn't choose the model.
2)Related to that during the graphical boot process the mouse pointer appears (I guess to let me click on the detailed boot messages) but it does not move until the “console mouse services” starts. Then I can finally use the mouse.
3)Moreover I have a mouse, but the wheel does not work. My mouse is a Genius NetScroll, that worked perfectly with Red Hat 9. The hardware navigator sais I have a Microsoft Mouse, uses the driver called generic3ps/2 and the device is /dev/input/mice
What can I do to fix the mouse? Any ideas?
