The trouble is that the mouse pointer jumps hapharzardly on the screen, if at all. I'm guessing that this might be a baud rate problem. Do serial mouses operate at just one speed? Anyway, I tried 300,1200,2400,4800 and 9600 and a mouse definition of "ps/2", which is what CompuAdd told me their mouse emulates. Didn't work, so then I tried the various combinations of mouse types. Still no joy. My configuration: 0.1 + 0.2.3 patchkit Any ideas? Thanks
