- What type of bus mouse do you have? I beleive that is is confirmed that
- the driver only works with a Logitech Bus mouse (it works with my MouseMan,
- And a couple others' C7 Bus mouse, so it will probably work with a C9
- also). It won't work with MS Bus mice, and won't work with PS/2 mice either
- (though I'd be happy to try if anyone can give me the pertinent info).
-
- Failing this... I don't know what to tell you.
