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.
Possibly but this is a documented problem
oh, within linux. well there you go, its the man who doesnt want you to use his mouse on a free OS.
