Hi,
I download the latest Linux demo, but there is no response when I click any where with the mouse. The keyboard does work.
I am running Mandrake 10.1 official and have a Wacom Inuos3 tablet.
Any ideas?
thanks,
Ed

Is your computer a laptop, and your "mouse" actually a trackpad? We had some problems with trackpads on Linux showing up as a drawing tablet and not working right, but that was fixed in the one case we heard about.

Does your drawing tablet work as a mouse? If you tap the pen on the tablet, does that register as a mouse click?

Finally, do you have a file: /etc/X11/xorg.conf? Can you post a copy or email it to support@lostmarble.com?

Oh, I rebooted and it works now... I don't know why it didn't work first time. Thanks for answering anyways.
