Q3A and Mandrake 9.1

[discipledoc]

I am really pleased with mdk 9.1. I think this is the first linux distro that really found all of my hardware on my nForce2 board.

With that said, I do have a slight problem that's really bugging me. My usb intellimouse will not move in q3a. The wheel will work, but when I move the mouse, nothing happens.

I tried playing tuxracer, and everything worked perfectly on that. I have even played UT2k3, and it played with no problems.

Here's my XF86Config-4 file:
