I bet I'm going to run into trouble on this, I have a Belkin KVM that I
use to switch between 3 computers on my desk.
I've had mouse issues with it in the past, i.e. if I configure it for a
scroll mouse in a Linux gui, then switch to Windows, the mouse pointer
jumps all over the screen, completely unusable.

I just tried setting it up again in sysinstall, and it's jumping
everywhere and corrupting the display, I have to ^C to recover control
of console before I can get out of mouse configuration.

Too bad, I have no issues with mousing on my Redhat 9 box, or my XP box,
is there any way to copy and paste w/o mouse in console?

Any way to trick mouse config in sysinstall?  It seems like the only
PS/2 options are the defaults.
