Hello!
 
(Thank you for helping me with 'root'!)
 
Whar device name and so on shall I use to get a Microsoft Serial Mouse 2.0A work with Linux Redhat 5.2 version 1998-11 ?
Then mouse works in Windows 95 with IRQ 3 and according to the Windows program msd (MicroSoft Diagnostics) is the mouse using COM Port COM2 with Mouse COM Port Address 02F8H, but in ControlPanel|System|UnitHandler|Mouse|SerialStandardMouse there is only the drivers msmouse.vxd and mouse.drv mentioned and not any resources such as IRQ or memory interval mentioned. My mother card seems to have a special mouse port similar to the com ports.
