Change mouse

Hi Bob,
Kudzu is the utility in linux which detects the plug and play devices . Type Kudzu at the shell prompt and press enter . A screen should appear and you will see ur new mouse detected. It will ask you if you want to keep new configuration. Select yes.

It is quite possible that you might not have kudzu installed on your linux box. For that , in your linux cdrom search for rpm starting with kudzu.... and type rpm -ivh kudzu*.*
and kudzu will be installed.
