Microsoft Bus Mouse



Thanks for the response. 
The mouse did work under dos. This machine no longer has dos on it, it's
strictly LINUX. During the boot process I watch it "install" the Bus Mouse.
I'm not sure what you mean when you ask does it work for the console. It
does not work at all under an X environment.
Thanks,
Don
