[plug] MDK 10.1Comm. USB/Mouse Woes..

[Muskie Teh Otterboi]

Hey all. I'm currently Running Mandrake 10.1 Community in a Dual-boot 
situation with Windows.
Basically, my problem is that MDK simply refuses to acknowledge my MS 
USB Wheel Mouse Optical (ye olde OEM Optical Wheel Mouse. 20 bucks and 
it's the best damn optical you can get without shelling out 300 bucks 
for a wireless dealie, but I digress) in my system. I highly Suspect 
that Mandrake is having Serious problems with it's USB support, so I'm 
going to be reinstalling MDK and then Upgrading to 10.1 Official. I was 
planing on doing this anyway, but I'm just wondering why the heck 
Mandrake's having Problems with my Mobo.. it's an Nforce2 chipset, BTW.

Strangely, Knoppix 3.6 (Thankyou, Atomic Mag!) Makes my mouse work 
perfectly, But produces yet another flaw: X Autodetects my Monitor V/H 
Rates wrong and when it initialises, the Screen is B0rked.

You know, for some strange reason, i've had But ONE single problem with 
linux, whatever distribution it decided to be (Debian wouldn't start X, 
Mandrake Doesen't Like my mouse (not to mention the control center 
crasheds, but I think that';s a related problem) and Knoppix Detects my 
Refresh rates incorrectly.. Feh. :P
