Logitech Optical USB Wheelmouse
Hey.... {FIRST POST!} Knoppix is the only distro that supports my video card/soundcard/monitor properly. (also only distro that i can get my DSL connection working) I love it! Only problem is that I have a Logitech Optical USB Wheelmouse. Sometimes, it is fully recognized, and everything is great, then other times on startup, it isn't recognized at all. I then have to play a hit and miss game to get the mouse working by repetedly powering up and powering down my pc. This the only distro I think I want on my hdd. Before I do that, I want to get this mouse issue resolved. Also, on a HDD install question, I plan on installing Knoppix on hdb. (winxp is on hda) hdb is 60 gigs, and 20 gigs of it is a FAT32 partition, so I can have a datashare between the two os's. I have 40 gigs of free space (not formatted) When I install Knoppx on the hdb, it will install in the free space, right? Thanks a lot!
Cheers!

From experience, the newer Logitech mouses are some of Knoppix's favorites, so there is probably an issue with how the USB is being recognized. Check your BIOS settings -- the ADVANCED menu usually has settings for Legacy or suchlike. Try toggling that.
What motherboard do you have? The chipset may have an influence on results. Let us know.
