Very Computer

Hi,
        I'm running the current version of Linux and XF86. I recently
bought a Mouse Systems PS/2 mouse.
        Although the cursor moves "left", "right" and "up". A
slight down motion, causes the cursor to drop to the bottom of the
screen.
        In the XF86Config file, I have protocol set to PS/2 and
device set to psaux. I treid setting it to MouseSystems, and that
doesnt work at all.
        The h/w does not seem to be at fault since, the mouse works
well with Win95.
        Any sort of info/help/advice would really be appreciated.
                Thanx.
                                Pravin.

Steve says the patch will eventually be incorporated into XFree86.  Meanwhile
the easy way is to patch gpm and then use gpm -R to send corrected mouse
data to the unmodified X server.
