I have an old machine with Intel Celeron Coppermine 850 Mhz and 256 MB SDRAM one of my PS/2 Port is faulty so I use a serial mouse from Intex, but it shown no movement in Ubuntu after I install it.

However it works fine in Knoppix, Puppy Dingo 4.00, dyne : Bolic, DSL, and even in Win XP.

Please help. :confused:
