Me too also not working. ;-(

I have tried :

# cat /dev/bm
cat: bm: Try again

And:

# mouse Microsoft /dev/bm
Play with mouse. Press Ctrl-c to ...
{nothing happens}
Finished

During boot Linux displays the message:

Busmouse detected and installed.

The jumpers are installed at IRQ3 port 02c8 (not sure about the port)
and the mouse workes perfectly in dos.

What is going on here ? I do think the mouse is suppose to work.

BUT I'm not complaining, Linux is GREAT !
