Try again with Slackware & if the XF86Config file doesn't work, copy the 
entry refering to mouse off the file on the floppy, over the entry for mouse 
on the Slackware generated on. Might work. If you replace the whole file with 
the one on the floppy, you may have to edit the paths for fonts  etc, or you 
may not need to. Try it.
