Hey People!
	Problems... I have an ATI VGAWonder XL24 video card which 
appears to work fine with Xfree86. This video card has a bus mouse 
which I am using. The support for the bus mouse does not work. Any 
suggestions?
	Another question to whoever can answer it. Why can't I execute 
programs the same when I am logged in under root as a user which I made 
myself? under root I need to type: exec ./prog_name. logged in under my 
own username I created, I only need to type the name of the executable. 
This is annoying because I have to login again after the exec is 
complete. That dumps me back at the home directory!

From the grade 1 class of unix.
-Mike
