[vox] Debian on Laptop




Hey all, at the last installfest Pete helped me put Debian 2.2 on my 
inherited Toshia 430 CDT.  Everything's been working fine, but I hadn't 
had a chance to test out X.  This evening I loaded X and was surprised to 
find that the pointing stick didn't work.  The cursor starts in the middle 
of the screen and the second I touch the pointing stick, the cursor jumps 
to the bottom of the screen, and will only move right to left.  
Additionally, the cursor jumps in about three steps from the right to the 
left of the screen.  I closed down the computer and rebooted with a normal 
mouse plugged into the PS/2 port on the back of the laptop.  The same 
thing happened.  I'm open to any ideas, please let me know what you guys 
think.  Thanks a lot.

Patrick
