Love and hate – my Mandrake Linux 10 stories

// September 24th, 2004 // Personal

Hate – the fact that my Microsoft USB mouse crashes the install and the system at every oppouritunity

Love – that all I need is to use the USB – PS2 converter to solve the problem

Hate – I had ripped my system apart trying to find the hardware causing the install to crash

Love – the speed of the install itself – 13 minutes baby … count em!!!

Hate – trying to install drivers for none natively installed hardware – this is written in english … yet not

Love – that there are programs like Synergy available for free!

But most of all

Love – that I am one step closer to running in a Windows free zone.

    Ok sounds like your mobo is having a conflict cause you shouldnt have lockups on your usb mouse.
