Well actually the mouse was working like a basic three button mouse. I really don't like the middle button acting as paste as I know I will turn that to false (i think) on Firefox in about:config.

First I realized I needed a PS/2 keyboard as it would hang before getting far if i had usb plug in. NOWWWWWW I have the problem of getting the right module for my network card as mine isn't listed ....arghhh ... They support asus P4P800 deluxe but the 3Com 3C940 (Gbit PCI Lan) is not listed.

This is what I got to choose from:
3c359 3Com 3c359 Tokenlink Velocity XL
3c501 3Com 3c501
3c503 3Com 3c503
3c505 3Com 3c505
3c507 3Com 3c507
3c509 3Com 3c509/3c579
3c515 3Com 3c515
3c59x 3Com 3c59x/3c90x (592/595/597)
typhoon 3Com 3CR990 Gigabit Ethernet

ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/9.1/boot/modules3.txt

I did find info about 3c2000 and 3c501 just now as I was searching around as I am posting this....

Doh it was in list already... goes off to try... see ya.

edit: Couldn't seem to get 3c501 or others to work in the installation attempts again. I am using the SuSe 9.1 live-eval .iso cd right now and it detected my 3Com 3C940 just fine in verbose startup for example. *sighs*
