rauhka Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 Having some strange issue with my mouse. During the install on Mandrake 10.1 the installer would hang at every "Next" if the mouse was attached. I could unplug the mouse click next then replug the mouse and use it - but if plugged in everything would lock up. I got through the install still (go keyboard!) and into KDE but even after selecting "Any PS/2 USB Mouse" during the install the mouse doesn't work on entry to the WM. If I go to the Hardware Configure section and change the mouse hardware to "USB" and apply then go back in and change back to "Any PS/2 USB" then it starts working. Any thoughts as to why this is happening? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 Is an option in your BIOS for Plug and Play set to be controlled by the OS? If so, this can be the cause of some hardware issues. I had similar issues once, and changed it to another setting (can't remember what it was, there's only two, that one, and OS). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
