Hi there,

I have exactly the same problem as ROADRASH: My PS/2 mouse does not work on Knoppix v3.8.1

First a little hardware data:

ASUS A7S333
Athlon XP 2400+
512 MB RAM
GeForce 4

I tried everything to solve my problem: The "pci=irqmask=0x0e98" cheat, flashing the newest BIOS, the "acpi=off" hint
from PAUL_E....... nothing worked. On the other hand, the KNOPPIX seems to detect my mouse right.


I usually work with a Wndows 2000 Pro, no problems there...
I first thought about the unusualy chipset my MB has (SIS 745), but after checking I found that ROADRASH's board has a VIA chipset, so this seems to be not the cause. Anyway, maybe the ASUS xxx333 series has another flaw (some sort of), which makes it problematic for the newest KNOPPIX.....


PLEASE HELP!
