group,

	I have XFree 1.2, a standard no frills keyboard and logitech
3button busmouse: questions:

	1 X startx in 640x480 w/ 800x600 virtual OK but keyboard
	returns strange stuff I cannot type anything reasonable
	just garbage is returned

	2 what do i put after "BusMouse" in Xconfig, the server
	wants a device entry - which device shall I give for a 
	busmouse - nothing fairly evident in /dev

	I am using the server-pccons.tar files, and the pre-compiled
	Kernel from agate.berkeley.edu  gee - except that I cannot type
	and I have no mouse - everything works file :-)

	any help out there?

thanks

scott
